Is Himalayan cats hypoallergenic?

There are many different reasons for allergies and each cat is different. People are allergic mostly to the cat's saliva, dander in their fur, and urine. Because of that, it's hard to just pick which cat you'd be better with than others. Instead you need to reduce the allergens. 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. Plus I volunteer and work with them for hours each week. Cats and people with allergies can co-exist.

Are calico cats nocturnal?

Cats are crepuscular, meaning they are most active at dawn and dusk. There are several theories why this is. Cats have great night vision and can hunt well in low light conditions, so they aren't limited by the hours of daylight in which they can find food, unlike the challenge strictly diurnal (day-dwelling) and nocturnal (night-dwelling) animals face.

Cats are opportunistic hunters, so they will take any chance of prey at any time of day. This fact that they can hunt at anytime means they have a wider selection of prey; for example birds during day and rodents at night. This results in a higher success rate of the cat because there is less of a stress to find food in a limited time and there is less competition with other animals for the same prey.

Another reason why being crepuscular is an advantage for cats is because they can avoid predators easily; they can see well in a variety of light conditions so they are more aware of their surroundings (You try finding your way unaided in a strange place at night!), and can avoid predators that are active during the opposite time. (Day and night creatures are just getting up or are going to sleep during the dusk and dawn.) Although cats can be active at anytime, but are most active during dusk and dawn, that is why they always are tacking catnap's: to ready their body for the next round of activity!

Are hyenas cats?

Hyenas are neither canine nor feline. They belong to their own family, the Hyaenidae, which includes the three species of hyena (spotted, striped and brown), and their relative, the aardwolf. The Hyaenidae family is placed on the Feliformia (cat-like) branch of the order Carnivora, along with the families Felidae (cats), Viverridae (civets) and Herpestidae (mongooses). Hyenas are therefore more closely related to cats than to dogs, since the dog family, Canidae, is placed on the Caniformia (dog-like) branch of the order Carnivora, together with the families Mustelidae (weasels), Procyonidae (raccoons), Ursidae (bears), Otariidae (eared seals), and Phocidae (true seals). The dog-like appearance of hyenas is due to convergent evolution - the process by which different species evolve similar solutions to similar problems.

What are the best family cats?
