My sister and I are part of a non-profit that give quilts to small non-profits that assist people in need (addiction, homeless, etc) We get quilt tops from members and if there is cat hair which my sister is allergic to, we throw the top in the dryer on air only and roller any hair that remains. this works for us. My dog i old and while hairy, he prefers sleeping on my bed or the carpeted landing/. Hard floors are not fun anymore. I have not had trouble with his hair on quilts.
