I already own a tabby cat (male, 2 and a half) that gets lonely even when we’re working from home. I found out I’m allergic to cats, but I take antihistamines and they seem to help control my eczema and sniffling a lot. We’re looking to get a second cat that is “hypoallergenic”, at least as far as cats can be so, particularly Siberian and Russian blue breeds.
There is a breeder that does cross-breeds, such as a Siberian-Russian blue mix, but also crossed with non-hypoallergenic cats such as Siberian-Maine Coon or Siberian-Ragdoll.
Does anyone have any experience with introducing a second cat if you already are allergic to the first?
We have no plans of getting rid of our tabby, but would look at getting a hypoallergenic cat to try and keep the allergens as minimal as possible. I just don’t know the effect of whether we should look for a full Siberian or if a cross-breed would be sufficient.
Thanks in advance for your help.
