Most cat allergies aren't caused by fur - they're triggered by Fel d 1, a protein cats produce in their saliva and sebaceous glands. When they groom, Fel d 1 coats the fur and spreads onto bedding, furniture, and soft surfaces throughout the home. Even breeds marketed as low-shedding can still produce and distribute this protein, which means fur volume alone doesn't determine how much someone will react.

Research shows Fel d 1 levels vary significantly between individual cats—even within the same breed. Some breeds trend lower on average, but individual variation means two cats of the same breed can differ by as much as 4-8x in allergen output.

Here’s where common breeds generally fall:

• Siberian — often lower Fel d 1; one of the most studied lower-allergen breeds
• Balinese — frequently cited as lower-allergen; long-haired but moderate Fel d 1
• Sphynx — hairless, but not low-allergen; Fel d 1 is in saliva and skin, not fur
• Bengal — moderate; individual variation is high
• Maine Coon — tends toward higher Fel d 1 output on average
• Domestic shorthair / mixed breed — wide range; no predictable baseline

p.s. individual variation within a breed can exceed variation between breeds, so choosing a cat by breed alone is an unreliable allergy strategy.
