    Cat hair???? WHERE???

    Everything I own is perfectly insulated with cat hair and I wouldn't have it any other way.

    Not much you can do about it, I guess... LOL What would our homes be without cat hair? (and the cats attached to them )

    I voted "half hearted": we have several lintrollers,but I only use those if I going out ..... sometimes I ever forget. I don't mind having cathair on the furniture, it is normal here

    Yesterday I went shopping and forgot to put on a "clean" t-shirt. Oh my, some people really stared at me . To the cashier I said "I have 3 cats

    I don't mind it that much. The only time I get frantic is when we're having company and I see it on the drapes on the family porch or on the couch in the great room. Then I get my handy-dandy lint roller and start rolling!

    I'm sure there is a bit of cat hair on all my clothes, but hey, that's life!

    Just keep in mind it's not for big jobs, but it sure does the trick with pet hair, dust, etc.! I'm very happy with it.
    Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) is a full management plan in which stray and feral cats already living outdoors in cities, towns, and rural areas are humanely trapped, then evaluated, vaccinated, and sterilized by veterinarians. Kittens and tame cats are adopted into good homes. Healthy adult cats too wild to be adopted are returned to their familiar habitat under the lifelong care of volunteers

    I checked *on top of it.* I pretty much try to keep a cat hair free home but of course one can ever be totally cat hair free no matter how hard one tries. The day my son got married I told him and all of his ushers and best man DO NOT SIT DOWN ANYWHERE! LOL! I didn't feel like having to get orange and white cat hair off of numerous BLACK tuxedos!

    This past weekend I moved out my bed and vacuumed underneath. Let's just say it had been a while and, well, the kitties often nap under there. I am embarrassed to say what my vacuum cleaner picked up in the dirt cup. Would you believe it was 100% full of a combination of orange and white hair! Now where could that have come from? LOL!

    Oh, to hell with it. Don Juan's hair shows up on just about any surface: dark hairs for light colors, light hairs for dark colors, ticked hairs for in-between surfaces.... Come spring shedding season, I'll brush hair off him by the cupful. You'd think he'd go bald, but noooo.

    If company's coming, I'll take a length of package tape and go over the rug in the living room.

    Zerlina's hair is short and very fine, so it just adds to the general accumulation of house dust.

    I voted on top of it but I am a bit prone to obsessive I guess - now that we have the six cats. But, there is still cat hair on me all the time and it does not bother me much. Two grandbabies in the house makes me notice it more I think

    I have a good vacuum and we use it every few days - and like Shady, we wear out vacuums pretty often and this newest one is a Hoover WindTunnel - high powered and it works GREAT!! I also have three lint rollers around to use.

    Lori I will have to try your Febreze trick because I love to use that anyway

    Missy was telling me about a new Swiffer Power Sweep - something like that - and I will have to look into that. I have a really lightweight vacuum that I keep near the kitchen and I use that on floors but the rest of the house is carpet. It is only a few years old so I still try to keep it really clean. When it wears out - I want PERGO!!!
