I have heard of hypoallergenic cats but I don't think there is really any such thing. What people are allergic to is not their fur but the dried saliva that is deposited on their fur when they groom themselves. If you got a cat that you could bathe maybe every week/month that may help but many cats fight bath time tooth and nail. I'm allergic to cats and dust but I have 2 cats and plenty of dust. My symptoms aren't severe but I get a really stuffy nose so I've been using generic Flonase nasal spray once a day for several years and that really helps a lot. Maybe you could talk with an doctor who is an allergist and see what he recommends. Also if you brush the cat and do a lot of vacuuming that would help. I wish you luck. Cats are wonderful and I couldn't imagine my life without them.
