If I'm allergic to cats will I be allergic to bunnies too?

I am allergic to cats but im willing to get one if there are any HYPOLALLERGENIC CATS?

• I heard siamese cats are hypoallergenic but im not sure. Im not allergic to the fur on cats its the dander on them i would like to know if their are any cats aside from hairless cats that are hypoallergenic?

• Answer:

  Hairless cats are NOT hypoallergenic--as you pointed out it's the dander--dried saliva and skin flakes--that trigger allergies, and hairless cats have plenty of that. Some breeds do seem to trigger fewer allergies than others, but it's never a sure thing, and every once in a while an individual sufferer will find a cat he can tolerate for whatever weird twist of fate or genetics. So really, it's a crapshoot. Although...for four thousand dollars, you CAN own your very own genetically engineered hypoallergenic cat. http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2006/06/060609-allergies-cats.html A firm called Allerca selectively bred a low-allergy cat about 3 years ago. Other companies are trying to duplicate their results with different techniques and moderate success.
