Have you tried a damp sponge? I bought some awhile ago that were made for removing pet hair. They worked pretty well but, as someone said, it's the price we pay for our furry friends. We have 2 Pugs who are notorious shedders, you can see the hair fly when they shake! It does help to brush them every day but......who does that? I have a "love Glove" for them (& all short haired dogs) it really works very well.

oh what is that called? the can of stuff for clinging clothes. Static Cling i think. you might try spraying a bit of that over your fabric and it should help. otherwise, clean, clean ,clean.
fabric sweeper for cat hair can help too.

I have had the best success with the Pledge Fabric Roller. It has two rollers that catch the hair. It's supposed to be disposable, but being as cheap as I am, I just empty out the furball and reuse it. In fact, I just bought a second one for the bedroom so I wouldn't have to keep moving the one I have around the house. Here's a link to a picture of it - but mine was cheaper in my local grocery store. I have thrown away the many lint rollers and sticky tape rollers since I've started using this. (And I have two Maine Coons, so there's LOTS of hair every where around my house.) The directions say to use a back and forth motion which really does help it work best.

I have also used the rubber gloves,the ones you used when washing dishes..for the couch and chair..then i rinse them off and do it again.

I spray furniture and rugs with Static Guard and then vacuum. For quilts and other items I don't want to wash often - I spray with Static Guard and put an old nylon over the hose attachment and vacuum them. 3 dogs ( 2 are shelties ) and 2 long hair cats - plus my daughter and I both have long hair - it is a constant battle. Brushing the pets on a regular basis helps, too.

Thank-you so much for your recommendation. I have often seen it and wanted to buy it but thought that was alot of money for a disposalable item, maybe i will spluge and give it a try.
I used to be a foster mom for maine coons, awesome cats.

be sure to read the reviews, someone talked about taking it apart and cleaning it to reuse it! cool huh?! also, go the company who makes it, maybe you can get a free sample, coupon or whatever!
