Agreed , plus you can find similar ones at most dollar stores . I dunno
what brand I have , but with a mostly black wardrobe ( I'm not goth , black
just suits me ) and one blue-point siamese and one tabby , both who shed ,
its an ESSENTIAL ! You can even find pocket/folding units now !

P.
I think when any of us posts a request for a new way to...(fill in the
blank).. it's a disappointment when we don't hear anything new, and a
frustration. Sometimes the answer that one seeks just doesn't exist, or
sometimes the question isn't getting asked in the right place. sometimes
you see the demand for the creation of a new solution!!
I used to ask questions here related to the type of work/sewing I do, and I
could never get the answer I was seeking here. I have since learned where
to get the info I need, and not hold it against the participants here that
no one had the answers I needed.

Well... where do you get the info you need????? Maybe it can help me out
to!
Thanks, Margaret

Well, if you put it that way, I have a long shot you might try--children's
blanket sleepers. I don't have a furry pet, so don't deal with this
problem, but I do have very long hair myself and every time I take my
toddler's sleepers out of the wash, they've attracted every one of my hairs
that was in there with it!

If there is a laundromat near by, take the fleece items there. Rent a
large dryer, put in the items and turn the dryer dial to AIR Only. The
hairs should come off and collect in the lint trap as the items whirl in
the dryer. I use this method to get rid of hairs and dust. Put your
pillows in a cold dryer and air spin them - fluffs up the feathers/
polyester filling and sucks out the dust, too. If you want scent, drop
in a dryer sheet.

I have tried the roller that you can rinse off. I find it
doesn't work very well on anything except very flat (woven
cotton type) material with no nap. And it didn't last very
long. You need to keep it covered between uses and the plastic
film they included with it eventually removed most of the
stickyness. There are different brands, and others may be
better. There was a review recently in Whole Dog Journal or
Whole Cat Journal of various products, and listed brands. If
you are intersted email me and I will find and copy the article
for you. Send me a snail mail address or fax number.
For the person that suggested the toddler sleepers in the wash -
what material are them made from? I don't have children so I am
not even sure what type of garment that is.

I have an area rug that even my Kirby vacuum cleaner won't remove the
dog/dog/cat hair from. While using some glass cleaner on the glass
table top I inadvertantly misted some onto the rug underneat the table.
Being barefoot at the time, I ran my foot over the rug to see just how
wet I'd gotten it. To my amazement, over the area where I'd slid my
foot, the hair had rolled up into a giant mat,that was easily picked up.
I'm really not suggesting that you take your shoes off the try and
clean your polar fleece but a light misting or maybe wet hands will
pill up the pet hair.
Lots of luck....

I've got two of them that I just tried on a Polar Fleece jacket. I
wasn't very impressed by the results. They did a nice job of organizing
the long cat hairs so they all lie neatly in the same direction--but
they're still on the fleece. :-( If you're interested though, the cheap
one doesn't have any kind of label at all on it. The better quality one
has a label "Leifheit dressetta" on it. I've no idea where I bought
either of them.
