Carpets versus Pet Hair.

[Tipp blue]

I'm extremely suspicious of any man that has 5 cats and therefore I'll withhold the valuable advice I was going to offer.

I suspect you've also got a thread somewhere about getting cat fur out of your pubes. Again i could offer valuable advice on this but I don't feel it's deserved.

What are you talking about? You don't have any valuable advice on anything!!

Can't believe nobody has mentioned sawdust yet, have you tried that?

I don’t know why but I keep reading this as Carpet v Pubic Hair.

Having real difficulty mounting a convincing argument against this.

I had none.
Then my gf at the time moved in.

I went from none to two.
Then we split up and she moved out.
Left me the cats.

A year later: My sister sent me an SOS. Her mate was giving up her cat to the RSPCA. It was a feral she rescued from living behind a row of shops.
I took it in while they tried to rehome it, he's still here.
I then went from two to three.

Number 4 I was conned into keeping.
A stray limped into my kitchen one day, clearly in pain and distress.
I took him to the vet to see if he was chipped and paid for his treatment.
I put a post on facebook to try and find his owner or a new home. Bleakholt sanctuary offered him a place.

Meanwhile my lodger asked if we could keep him. I said only if you take him with you when you move.
She moved, couldn't take the cat.
So now at 4 cats.

I was regularly donating to animal charities at this point, as I could afford it and I registered as a fosterer for abandoned cats.
A Persian was rescued from Bolton area and homed with me. The rescuers tried to find her owners and nobody came forward.
Word was that they had moved house and left her behind.
The sanctuary offered her a place, but by then it was too late and I said she may as well stay with me!

I lost my sanity about 3 cats ago.

lol

We only have the two cats but laminate/wooden flooring/tile is the only practical solution to the pet hair we’ve found I’m afraid, even with some area rugs as they are easier to clean/replace. If you find it colder than carpet you could get some extra large slippers and some thick socks.

Thanks to rescuing those that others had abandoned x

Burn all your carpet! Take it out of the house first mind you. Replace with wood. Put rugs down

I would love to have five cats. Unfortunately my house mate has shared custody of a stupid German Shepherd so can’t even have one

Why don't you use the cat pet Hoover instead of the shark one?

 

[4737carlin]

I.know how the OP feels, I've got a few cats and hooves are just not effective.
So, apart from the stairs, everywhere here is wooden floor with rugs

 

[street end]

This is the answer, and does work. Pretty disgusting tbh.

Next issue. The hoover. I had a Dyson Pet hoover.

This is actually your biggest issue.

A Dyson is not a Hoover. A Hoover is a Hoover.

Line your floor with cat pelts, then carpet your cats.

See how they like it.
