The genetically engineered feline, which is expected to be available from 2007, is the first in a planned series of lifestyle pets, Los Angeles-based Allerca said in a press release.
Allerca hopes to attract customers among the millions of people worldwide who suffer from cat allergies.
Up to 10 percent of the U.S. population alone are believed to be prone to symptoms that can affect the eyes, nose, ears, throat, lungs and skin.
I'm one of those 10 percent, since I know someone owns a cat from the moment I enter the house or room. But they're the one animal I've always wanted as a pet. Too bad getting one that doesn't mess me up would cost more then a high end computer.
