From all I have heard it is more the properties (Right word?) of their
skin then their hair.  I think it is more cat dander which comes from
their skin then hair.

Do a search on cat allergy on you should come up with some helpfull
sites such as:

It is actually the cat's dander(skin flakes) your husband is allergic to.
Having your house cleaned frequently and giving your cat a bath frequently
will help, but not eliminate your problem.  They are now breeding cats that
people are not allergic to, but that won't help your current situation.  He
should take his allergy medication regularly and he should avoid contact
with your cat.  Good luck.

Probably not.

Try your local health food store, some have had success by changing
the food/shampoo used on the pet.

Most people are allergic to the dander, the microscopic flakes of dried
saliva on cats' skin which causes allergy.

I have a friend who is allergic, and when he lived in the area, I would
bathe my cats once a week and he had a much easier time visiting.

then there is getting allergy shots.  I know a woman who is allergic to cats
who goes through the shots so she can foster kittens.

Am I to believe that dander containing saliva travels seperate from cat
hair?
