A hairless cat is actually not hairless. They have peach fuzz. They are worse for people with Allergies. They are worse because the dead skin falls off easier. Their skin is what people are allergic to. Not their fur. They also leave oily residue behind.

What is the best cat for you if you are allergic?

Which cat is best for somebody with allergies?
If you have an allergic reaction to dandruff and or fur the best cat you would want to get is a Siberian Cat. I know it sounds weird but check out google and type in "cat without dander." Answer If someone has allergic reactions to cats it's usually because of cats saliva. Cats spend most of their time grooming themselves that their saliva gets and clings on their fur. So people with allergies to cats are not allergic to the cats fur, but to their cats saliva. I suggest to a person with allergies to cats to get a Spynx ( a hairless breed of cat) or an American Shorthair. These are the best breeds of cats for people who have allergies.

It would be hard to say without knowing exactly what the allergic reaction was triggering on. Most people are allergic to cat dander, and many are more allergic to the dander of adult cats.

The Cornish Rex, identified by its curly whiskers, does come in a white variety with green eyes.

Can someone who allergic to cats visit someone who has a cat?
It depends on how high they're allergic to cats. I myself am allergic to cats and we have 13 cats; I sneeze once in a while and get stuffed up but it's no big deal. If they are really miserable around cats and it affects they're health, it's probably best that they don't visit someone with a cat if it's at all possible.
