"Cat" Allergies are not usually to the cat or their fur but to dander or to mites. First find out what you are allergic to from your doctor as there are multiple treatments available. Second, there are allergy shampoos that you can use to bathe your cat. These cut down on the allergens. Also, be sure to wash you hands after petting the cat, keep the cat out of your bedroom, and keep you cat indoors. It's been proven that indoor/outdoor or just outdoor cats bathe themselves more and their saliva may be what you are allergic to as well.
