Unfortunately not. However, don't let this stop you from having one of these gentle giants. There are many ways to reduce allergens in your home and allow for you to own a cat.
1 - Keep your cats indoors only. When they go indoor and outdoor, they clean themselves more often, shed more, and bring inside outdoor allergens. Most people are actually not allergic to cat fur, but are allergic to their saliva and dander that is in their fur.
2 - Keep your cat out of the bedroom and off the furniture. While we love our furry friends to cuddle up next to us in bed, it's hours of exposure to the allergens. Cat trees or cat condos are great alternatives to them being on your furniture.
3- Keep your cat groomed. There are anti-dander shampoos that help Allergies and reduce shedding. Also brushing will help.
4 - Wash your hands after petting your cat.
5 - There are awesome meds now that are specifically designed to combat pet allergies. Ask your doctor which they would recommend you use.
Good luck with your allergies. I've been allergic to cats all my life and own 3 of the furry beasts (including a Maine Coon). Plus I volunteer and work with them for hours each week. Cats and people with allergies can co-exist.
