No, Havana Brown cats are not considered hypoallergenic. While no cat breed is entirely hypoallergenic, some breeds produce fewer allergens than others. Allergens in cats primarily come from proteins found in their saliva and skin glands rather than their fur. Havana Browns, like other cats, produce these allergens, so they can still trigger allergies in sensitive individuals. However, because they have short, sleek coats and may shed less than some other breeds, some people with cat allergies may find that they tolerate Havana Browns better than cats with longer or denser fur.
