But you still can&rsquo;t shake the feeling that there&rsquo;s a way for you to have one. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And you&rsquo;re not that wrong! Trust me, I have petted and cared for as many cats as there are Grey&rsquo;s Anatomy episodes. I can attest to the fact that being allergic to them didn&rsquo;t help with the whole bonding thing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But that didn&rsquo;t stop me from going out of my way to figure out how to continue making my life miserable while making my fluffers&rsquo; lives as exciting as possible. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here&rsquo;s the thing. Getting the <em>&ldquo;You&rsquo;re allergic to cats!&rdquo;<\/em> diagnosis doesn&rsquo;t mean you have to forget that these curious creatures make your life better. In fact, when you have your heart set on a fluffer, you shouldn&rsquo;t allow allergies to keep you away from getting what you want. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Actually, there are ways you can live happily with your cat (or cats!?) without sneezing, sniffling, or rubbing your eyes at all times. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These allergies, as annoying as they might seem, aren&rsquo;t <em>that <\/em>dangerous and aren&rsquo;t<em> that<\/em> difficult to manage. And, to be completely honest, the things you need to do to ensure both of you are safe and secure are minimal. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-are-persian-cats-hypoallergenic\">Are Persian cats hypoallergenic?<\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1280\" height=\"853\" src=\"https:\/\/catschef.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Are-Persian-Cats-Hypoallergenic-1-1280x853.jpg\" alt=\"Are Persian Cats Hypoallergenic?

And that means they don&rsquo;t even fall under the <em>&ldquo;likely to be hypoallergenic&rdquo;<\/em> category. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>How&rsquo;s that possible? Pet parents tend to think that kitties with shorter fluff and no shedding can&rsquo;t cause allergic reactions. But even Persian cats with shorter, denser coats cause allergic reactions because the problem isn&rsquo;t the hair. It&rsquo;s the dander. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dander is the dead skin cells that clump up on your cat&rsquo;s body. That&rsquo;s right, turns out you&rsquo;re not the only one who needs to exfoliate!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dander falls off of your cat&rsquo;s skin, spreads around the apartment, and ends up pretty much everywhere. Other than dander, there are other allergy triggers you might want to keep an eye out for. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Saliva, mucous, sweat, tears, urine, and feces can spread around your place and cause you to sneeze the day away, thinking you need to vacuum again because you can see your cat&rsquo;s coat everywhere! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Don&rsquo;t get me wrong, you do need to vacuum as often as you can when you&rsquo;re allergic to your cat &ndash; but not because of the hair. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-1-did-somebody-mention-bathing\">1. &ldquo;Did somebody mention bathing!?&rdquo; <\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1280\" height=\"865\" src=\"https:\/\/catschef.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Are-Persian-Cats-Hypoallergenic-3-1280x865.jpg\" alt=\"Are Persian Cats Hypoallergenic?

And they only need seconds to go from the most affectionate of pets to the most violent of beasts. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Don&rsquo;t worry, though! Where there&rsquo;s a will, there&rsquo;s a way. And we&rsquo;re here to make sure you go through the bathing process without tears, scratched fingers, and torn T-shirts. When you&rsquo;re trying to bathe a Persian kitten, make sure you get her accustomed to water as much as you can from an early age. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But, when you&rsquo;re trying to bathe an adult, already-knows-what&rsquo;s-up Persian cat, don&rsquo;t shy away from protecting your hands and eyes, bathing her once every couple of months, and employing powdered soaps and dry mousses in between those baths.

When you&rsquo;re parenting the fluffiest of fluffers, you become aware (pretty early on) that they don&rsquo;t stop shedding even after you&rsquo;ve groomed, brushed, and bathed them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As much as we absolutely adore our precious purrincesses, we have to agree they can be pretty gross. Shedding on your kitchen counters, licking the floors after they&rsquo;ve dropped some food, and pooping outside of the litterbox? Not cool, right!?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Washing your hands all the time seems like the least you can do to ensure you&rsquo;re keeping those allergens at bay. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, stop wondering whether Persian cats are hypoallergenic or not.
