It usually is a dander allergy which most people react to. There doesn't seem to be anything at all on the skin in that sense. Except oil. They do get oily because there isn't any hair...we bath them once a week. I didn't know whether I would have a problem until I went to pick him up...let's say I was crossing my fingers! When I walked in the room and there was 10 of them......I knew then because in a normal room with cats I do start to react a bit with watery eyes and such.
He does look like an alien....and a couple of times I have caught myself thinking what did I get? But he is a very cool cat...very dog like! And you're right...they dont' know they're different!
