I have 4 cats. I love them very much.

They also produce more fur than there are grains of sand in this God forsaken earth. There’s fur in my clothes, food, mouse, ceiling fan, body crevices.

Help. Me.

    Badly :-) Two golden retrievers create a lot of hair every day and at some point you just learn to live with it. Even if you regularly clean then there will be fur tumbleweeds behind and underneath everything. It really helps having hard flooring through the ground floor of the house (my dogs don’t go upstairs), as that’s easier to keep clean, and regular grooming reduces but certainly doesn’t eliminate the shedding.

    People have said that a good vaccuum cleaner helps, which is true, but my last Dyson (pet edition) got so clogged with fur that the motor caught fire! Now using a Henry vaccuum which seems to be working pretty well.

      Using a robot vacuum when pet hair is concerned is a lot like running a dryer on things that have a lot of lint. You need to regularly stop it and empty the buildup for a few cycles, otherwise it’s just going to be pushing things around. I can’t speak for the self-empying ones, I suppose for them it depends on how well the sensor works to get them to dump.
