Are you allergic to cats?  Do you sneeze and wheeze?  Do your eyes water around cats?  The Siberian may be just the breed for you.  Many long time allergy suffers have been very successful with the Siberian.  Although it is not going to work for all allergy sufferers it has worked for many. 

Although there is no scientific data available supporting this and also none that can disprove this the Siberian appears to be the cat of choice for many allergy sufferers. 

If you are an allergy sufferer you should visit with a Siberian in person, preferably with a breeder who has a litter available.  This way you would be able to make multiple visits as the kitten grows to be sure your allergies are not triggered.  Some breeders will share their allergy experiences with you and I suggest you visit our breeders page to find a breeder within in your area.  You may be allergic to one Siberian and not another.  Breeders have had experiences where allergy sufferers have not been allergic to a kitten but reacted to this kittens mother.  Is color a factor?  Some breeders say yes and some say no.  Is sex a contributing factor?  Again some say yes and some say no.  It all comes down to YOU and the individual cat/kitten near you at the time.

It is very traumatic for you and a kitten not to mention expensive, if it is shipped to you and then has to be returned home if your allergies act up.
