I'm looking for advice on cat breeds.
I love cats. I had one growing up and also one when I moved in with a boyfriend years ago. Both were rescue cats and were hugely loved. I'd really love to get another one because I miss having one around and I'd also like to teach my DS about the responsibilities and joys of pet ownership.
The problem is that I have a reasonably severe allergy to cats and so does my DH.
So, I was wondering if we should try getting a Devon or Cornish Rex as I have heard they can be low impact on allergy sufferers. Does anyone have any experience of this? And could anyone advise if they are always indoor cats, or if some can be allowed outside? We have a small house and I would feel cruel keeping a cat indoors all the time.
Alternatively, does anyone have any experience of managing cat allergies? My sister has an air ioniser which helps hugely with her dog - not sure if it would be the same with a cat allergy?
