What is the best cat for a child with asthms?

Bengals are great because they have pelts rather than fur. They don't shed much either. I have Asthma and have not been affected by my 1 year old brown spotted Bengal. Usually I'm wheezey and sniffy (I also have a cat allergy!) when around cats. We just got a snow spotted Bengal kitten and I'm a bit sniffy so go for a brown spotted Bengal! They do cost a lot but once you buy one you'll never even think about the money! They are also great cats for kids as they are VERY playful and up for anything. Get a boy because they are just cuddlier (my opinion only!). Take care with breeders. If it's too cheap don't buy it because it might be dodgy. Good luck! Nicky (UK)
