They sell those here too! I didn't buy one yet as I wasn't sure about the quality. He he, I am off to buy one tomorrow now!!

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!

I just tell everyone I was on a date with a werewolf.

And she's shedding.

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!

I voted "On top of it".I try my hardest to keep the hairs under control.I must admit that it don't bother me that much..what do you expect having a furry animal around.Not much you can do about it.Yes,sometimes I wear my cat on my sleave .I also try to avoid dark colors when buying things,for they highlight the fur that attaches to it

Cat hair? It's part of the furniture and I wouldn't have it any other way! Just did the annual clean of the insides of the computers the other day and there was a fair bit of cat hair in there too.

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.

I'm somewhere between 'Cat Hair? Where?' and 'Half-Hearted'.

I sometimes use a lint roller on myself to get some of the hair off my work pants before I leave for work, but that's about it.

I vaccuum once a month.

For the most part, I ignore the pet hair that dominates my furniture.

Though these habits will change when Andy and I get a place together. Or else he'd end up in the hospital again.

With 3 Golden Retrievers and 1 Labrador Retriever, who constantly shed, I don't even notice cat hair anymore. Really!!!

Yesterday, Butter was sitting in my lap and I had on a black shirt and I did have white hair on me, but that's the first time I've even noticed it in a while!

Funny how the dog hair has overtaken everything and that's what we're looking for these days and never see hair from Mimi or Butter! LOL!!

i JUST CLEANED UNDER MY BED TOO!! AHHHH!!!!!!!!!! zoey and kendy just love sleeping under there omg that is where zoey's winter coat went!

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!!!

**mina'smomma** · 10-20-2005, 08:29 AM

If I feel like it I'll vaccum it up and use the lint roller, but if not that's ok too. I usually keep a cover on the furniture that I don't want their hair all over.
