Hi everyone,
I am expecting to get my new kitty in September. Hubby has agreed on two! My breeder said two would be a possibility.

My question:

My husband is allergic and was allergic to my last Sphynx. His Dr. said his allergies would have been from my kitty licking herself, the spit drying on her skin, and then flaking off.

We had carpets removed in our home. His allergies plummeted.

He has agreed on two with the understanding that if he can’t breathe with two, one would have to go.

Has anyone had experience with a loved one with allergies? I would swiffer the floor daily to wipe up dry spit. Does anyone have other suggestions to help with allergies? Part of my discussion with him is that the two kitties would cuddle each other and leave him alone. Raphael loved hubby and they cuddled every day. He only reacted allergy wise if Raphael licked him.

Any suggestions would be appreciated. I would hate to get two and have to re-home one if it doesn’t work out. Re-homing hubby is not an option!
