      That is a completely valid reason. There’s always the ballsack cats if you want to experience one.

        The problem with cat allergies is their saliva, not the fur, so hairless cats are still a problem.

          Personally, I’m more allergic to the litterbox dust and shit smell than fur or saliva.

          Also pretty sure it’s going to be subjective as to what will set someone’s allergies off, as allergies are extremely subjective.

        I have cat allergies, and I can tell you for a fact that I am still allergic to sphinx cats. Possibly even more so.

        It has never stopped me from interacting with cats though, I just have to try to remember to take a zyrtec or something before hand

        It could have been true. Growing out of allergies isn’t too uncommon. I used to be allergic to all sorts of things that’re just fine now.
