Hi Debbie!

I am also a clean freak, even with 2 cats I can't stand the litter dust, litter on the floor and cat hair everywhere. (sorry guys)

As you all know, Josie is my Asthma baby and I am trying every way possible to make her life better.

I haven't got it yet (it should arrive in the next few days), but I just recently ordered an Ionic Air Cleaner and Freshener with Light by Air Innovations from QVC. I plan to put it in our office, AKA The Cat's Room, where the litter box is and our major litter dust problem exists. I hope that it will cut down on the dust problem and may cut down Josie's asthma attacks. It's supposed to clean the air too, leaving it smelling fresh, so I'm hoping that I won't have to use so many air freshners anymore. (they scare me - fire hazard!)

I would LOVE to have a new vacuum. My mom just bought a new Oreck and she loves it. I've played with it and it's so light weight, which I think I'd love because I do have some back problems. But the suction is great!

I did buy myself a new Bissell SpotBot back before Christmas. I was just so sick of cleaning up vomit! It has been a GodSend! I love that machine! That is the best money I've spent on a cleaning machine! I love that thing! Turn it on and leave the room and ta da! Done!

Of course there's the lint rollers & the swiffer cloths.

I am also planning to look for a new couch this year. I am surprised that so many cat people are opting for microfiber. I always figured that the microfiber would be like a magnet for the cat hair! Is it not?
