It has been reported that the Russian Blue cat secretes fewer cat allergens. Male genders have been reported to cause more allergies.
It is known that Russian Blue cats, a kind, gentle and loyal breed, are more suitable for allergic bodies.
Russian Blue cats are not considered to be hypoallergenic. They produce dander, which is a common allergen for people who are allergic to cats. They also shed their coat like any other cats, which can also contribute to allergies.
Russian Blue cats have a short, dense coat that is soft and silky to the touch. Their coat is typically a steel-blue color with silver tips, giving them a beautiful and unique appearance. They are known for being very low-shedding cats, which means that they don’t shed as much as some other breeds. However, they still produce dander, which is the primary allergen that causes an allergic reaction in people.
It’s worth noting that there is no such thing as a completely hypoallergenic cat. Even breeds that are considered to be hypoallergenic produce some level of dander, saliva, and urine that can trigger an allergic reaction. However, there are some cats that produce less dander and shedding, which may make them more tolerable for people with mild allergies.
It’s always recommended that people with allergies considering a Russian Blue, or any other breed of cat, meet and spend time with the cat before committing to bring it home, and see how their allergy react to the cat. Grooming can also help to reduce the amount of dander and shedding, which may make the cat more tolerable for people with mild allergies.
