Grew up with both cats and dogs, but lately have only had cats. I think just a little easier to take care of, for example don’t have to be taken outside during bad weather.
I love both! We have a long haired cat and a shedding dog so the pet hair problem is real in our household! Thanks for the tips, but im also wondering if you have any tips for getting pet hair out of clothing? Even after washing some fabrics (especially fleecy types) it seems to stay embedded in?
This! And nothing let's you know this happens better than navy blue sheets. Literally have to pull each hair out. Don't use navy sheets? I don't want to just not SEE the hair -- I want to get RID of it!
Before washing, use a lint roller. During washing, use silicone washer balls, which are "sticky", and reusable. After washing, hang dry, or use dryer sheets. During folding, have a lint roller handy.
I found a couple of rubber collectors in Walgreens, you throw them in the dryer and work pretty good for removing dog hair.When I went to buy more I didn't find them. Maybe...
I have one cat but sometimes I feel like he has 5 times the amount of hair that a cat should have. Thanks so much for the information and sharing your expertise!
It seems I'm doomed to live my entire life sharing a home with fur covered family members. I've never gone looking for them....they've just found me. My husband, however, always said he didn't like cats and wanted nothing to do with them. Married to me he's had to live with them and, it seems, they're fascinated with him. As soon as I open the bedroom door in the morning at least one cat is waiting to get in because.....they love to snuggle in with him. He's now their designated cat rack.
My boyfriend who insisted on not wanting me to keep our new cat and yet he just ordered some sashimi to bring home for her when we went to lunch on Sunday. 🤦🏻♀️
You’re a lifesaver! I’ve had a cat for 6 years now and I’m obsessed over how much cat hair winds up on my sofa and loveseats, especially when I or anyone else wants to sit down. Not to mention the times when my cat likes to climb on the dining room table and leaves cat hair on my tablecloth. Till now I’ve washed my tablecloth in the laundry when it gets too messy. I like the idea of removing the hair with rubber gloves which would save me a lot of hassle.
Thanks for this timely video, Melissa. I was adopted by Fluffy earlier this year, and while I try to capture some of his hair by brushing him every day, there is cat hair everywhere! Great tips, thank you! 😀🙏
Yes I too deal everyday with tons of pet hair . We have two cats (one who sheds constantly even with daily brushing) and two dogs. It's been such a part of my life for so long that it would seem strange if I were to suddenly stop dealing with it !! It's totally worth it all though to have these sweet animals in my life!!!
Super helpful video! I wish I'd seen this before we started converting to non-fabric furniture pieces because of our Husky-Malamute mix. If you could do a video on laundry tips for pet owners, that would be great! We end up with her hair woven into clothes even after going through the washer and dryer despite using wool balls and multiple dryer sheets.
I recently bought a Bissell pet hair eraser turbo, and it's pretty amazing. My 10 year old long haired, super floofy, part Maine Coon, kitty molts year round, and not just a bit like what I'm seeing in your video. I have enough cat hair in my house to make an entire new cat every day! But the vaccum cleaner brush roll is tangle free, even my long blonde hair doesn't get caught around it! Phenomenal!
Definitely a dog person! Mine is basically a non-shedder...a toy poodle. Honestly not sure I (or my allergies) could deal with pet hair but this was very interesting and helpful. Thank you.
I'm a cat person. We have 4! At this point, I've just accepted that I live a fuzzy life. We do our best with the cat hair, but I'm never going to have a completely pet hair-free home. It just is what it is. For when we really gotta look spiffy: the dollar store has these lint brushes, it's like a red fuzzy fabric with the nap going in one direction attached to a handle. I find that they work really well on both upholstered surfaces and clothing, and they're less wasteful than disposable roller sheets.
We just bought couches from people who had pets. They looked good until I looked under the chair. So much pet hair! 😩 I was just thinking today how I want to tackle this, so this video is so well timed!!! Thanks so much!!!
My family and I love both dogs and cats. I find brushing my pets on a regular bases helps with the massive amounts of fur. Thank you for this helpful video. Planning on using the glove method on my car upholstery.
I love cats and dogs and have had both. But I Always have had cats so I probably lean more heavily that way. Thank you for these ideas! Uneven surfaces are the worst.
Was a dog person, but moving in with my boyfriend who has a cat, am now a cat person! Pros and cons with both, but I think cats just tip the balance for me now 💖. Great tips Melissa, why didn't I think of using those items before? 🤔 Seems so obvious, but many thanks, helped me a lot! x
I have two big dogs, one of them is an Alaskan Malamute - we have gone through so many vacuums 😅 but I just bought a carpet rake/brush thing and I love it. I go over the carpet after I vacuum and pick up what's left.
A dog person, definitely. But I do love cats, too. 😀 Our dog also loves them - and not in a scary way. 😁 My boy is a German shepherd - don't let me even start talking for the amount of fur we are dealing with on daily basis 😆 Thanks for the great hints! ♥️
I first saw the rubber glove trick to clean fur from furniture several years ago, and I got so excited that it worked that I decided to try one step further, so I thought I'd pet my cat with the gloves on to remove loose fur directly from the source. She then stood up on her hind legs, latched onto my skull, and sang me the battle song of her people while blood trickled down the sides of my face. This four pound rage meatball tried to kill me, but the couch looked great!
Both. We have 2 Ragdolls and Chocolate Lab. We recently lost our retired Greyhound, Arrow, to bone cancer, but his presence is till strong in our house.
Very helpful! I had been using a soft brush on tufts. The sticky paper is quicker and better. I am a cat and dog person. The cat's bigger than the dog, but the shedding is about equally annoying.
Lol my new vacuum has a pet grooming tool, my cat would absolutely hate it! 😆 I wish I could groom my cat with the vacuum cleaner! But he loves his dog brush lol it's the only thing that will get through his long, thick hair properly.
I do all of that I also bathe the babies with aloe shampoo and give Omega in a vitamin or treat. I have dogs the hair was driving me crazy.That said since I been using the shampoo and vitamin/ treat there's been a huge difference in the hair.
I don't currently have pets, I like both but prefer smaller dogs. I've used all those methods effectively over the years. On carpeted floors I use a broom that has silicon or rubber bristles to get up hair (especially my long hair). This helps get up hair that doesn't always come up with a vacuum, plus minimizes the amount of hair that gets wrapped around the the vacuum roller. I remove hair from around the roller after every 2 or 3 uses.
How about pet hair on clothes? My rabbit has a thick coat and sheds a lot. I use a sticky lint roller on my leggings, but it makes them pill too quickly. I’d love to get some tips on that!
Some mornings my light gray carpet is covered in enough fur to make a dozen kittens. My long haired black cat is thankfully done shedding til springtime! Before bedtime I place fleece blankets on favorite chairs and the couch to collect fur from our three cats.
I’m a both person but prefer to be a cat person. My cat Spike is Ragdoll/Maine coone x persian. He looks like a super fluffy Sylvester the cat. He has a lot of loose hair. Fury lil booger. He gets brushed around 5 times a day to keep the fluff tumbleweeds down. Thanks for the suggestions. 😻
We use a pet brush. It's a special brush with angled hairs that are almost claw shaped and you just pull the brush down and it collects all the hair in the brush either on stairs or upholstery or really anything there's also a long one like a broom.
Thank you so much Melissa!, Can u please do a video on pet hair in ur car or suv Omg! It’s a night mare! I scrape and do, but it’s not easy! Thank you so much
I'm a both person, but i currently have 2 cats. I thought you had 2 cats? I *did* learn a couple of tricks from this. While I've used the damp cloth trick before, I'm sure the microfibre cloth works much better. I have a real issue with my couch 'cause my Scampi likes to lay on the top of the back cushions.
Thanks for the pet tips Melissa! I am both a dog or Kitty. I have 2 rescues a Pitbull and a German Shephard Chow mix. Try to keep a handle on the hair. Joan Bates ❤ ❤ ❤
I always said I would get a short hair cat to minimize hair, but after fostering a medium hair cat that I fell in love i now have much more pet hair then I expected. Nowhere close to having s long haired cat but i vacuum at least 3x a day minimum at this point with the litter getting out and the hair.
I used to be a dog person but as I’ve gotten older, I am now a car person. Cats are independent and not as needy as a dog. Pet hair is definitely an issue so thanks or the video!
I love ❤️ my cat so much and I love ❤️ my dog so much! What does it make me? a both person. I have a cat who adopted me and my dog during our morning walk; he is 2 yrs old, before him, I had a cat for 14 years. After this cat adopted us my 12 year old dog lived/spent 1 1/2 years with this cat and then he recently passed away. Now, I have a big giant puppy that keeps me on my toes and mesmerizing my cat and I. That’s why I am both person💗
Then how do you recommend cleaning the microfiber cloth once the pet hair gets woven into it? It's like transferring the problem to another area to clean. It is difficult to remove those little tiny things from microfiber clothes.
Great tips!!! New to me is the rubber gloves!!! 👌🙌😍❤ xxx Plus I'm getting new sofa coming in January 🤞 same material as your chair!!! So I will be using the microfiber cloth with water trick when it's here. Thank you!!! 🙌🙌🙌 xxx
Thank you so much for this! I have 3 cats & recently moved from a 4 bedroom house to a small apartment. The only places the cats have to sleep are the couch & my bed & both are covered with hair. P.s. Any tips on keeping litter from getting everywhere? Lol
In my experience, any litter that is made of small pieces (e.g. clay, silica, wheat, corn, grass) is going to track a lot. My solution was to skip the small litter mats. Instead, I bought a bigger area rug, specifically a rubber-backed indoor/outdoor one with low pile, to put under the litter box. Because the cats walk on it a few steps more, more litter is knocked off their paws and much less gets tracked around the house. The low pile makes it easy to vacuum. Another solution is to use pellet litter of some kind if your cats can become accustomed to it (not all can). Because the pieces are bigger, not as much tracks out of the litter box in the first place and the pieces that do end up outside of it don't travel as far as smaller litter (as long as your cat doesn't kick litter out of the box or play with the pellets, of course).
One should have 2 litter boxes per cat. Hopefully you can find find spots for 5 or 6 boxes in your apartment. Maybe you could try potty training them. Then there would be less litter tracked. 😉
I use a shoe to get pet hair (or human hair) cleaned up from carpet or rugs... similar to the rubber gloves and squeegee, it makes the hair ball up with zero effort. If there's a lot of hair on a rug that is hard to vacuum, the bottom of tennis shoes is very effective! I'm going to use the rubber gloves on furniture though 😄 Q/A: I thought I was a cat person but after several years of fostering dozens of kitties, I'm more of a dog person... for my home anyway. Dogs go potty OUTSIDE! And my dog has me spoiled with her mellow personality and she literally never drools or licks us. I guess I'm both? Or neither? IDK 😆
I'm a both person, but currently have cats. I struggle with the cat hair on a hard surfaces. They tend to smear around rather than get picked up by the wet cloth.
That’s my problem too! Bathrooms are specially problematic, with humidity the hair sticks everywhere, and when cleaning you seem to extend it even more… anyone has any tips? Thanks!
As a person with 9 cats . All long hair . The best tool to get pet hair off furniture is a damp paper towel. You had the right idea with microfiber cloth but then you have to wash the cloth and you will need to remove the hair before . I really like all of your videos . Huge fans for years but I feel this video was not up to your usual high standards. Also when doing the laundry there are hair float traps to add to your washer. There also now pet lint sheets to throw into the dryer now. So many options on the market now.
Are you a cat person or a dog person?
Grew up with both cats and dogs, but lately have only had cats. I think just a little easier to take care of, for example don’t have to be taken outside during bad weather.
Both! Lol. Can you do a video on keeping the house clean from m muddy paws when your yard is a mudpit?!
I'm a cat person! And now, definitely a Molly person 😍
Thank you for the precious tips, as always!

My boyfriend who insisted on not wanting me to keep our new cat and yet he just ordered some sashimi to bring home for her when we went to lunch on Sunday. 🤦🏻♀️
My husband is not a huge fan of cats, but he does allow our 16 pound Tabby to climb on his chest and read with him 😄
Thanks for addressing this most vexing cleaning issue. Definitely a cat person; cats are the thinking persons pet. Thanks again! ~ Lisa

What is the brand name of the little motorized hand held vacuum you were using ? I would like to buy that to do my couch
It's a Dyson

I’m a both person but prefer to be a cat person. My cat Spike is Ragdoll/Maine coone x persian. He looks like a super fluffy Sylvester the cat. He has a lot of loose hair. Fury lil booger. He gets brushed around 5 times a day to keep the fluff tumbleweeds down. Thanks for the suggestions. 😻
Dog person but would always love a cat!
Yes...
Ty so much appreciate you
Thanks for watching Linda!
Both. We have a Great Dane and a tiger cat. However, like oil and water, they don't mix.
We use a pet brush. It's a special brush with angled hairs that are almost claw shaped and you just pull the brush down and it collects all the hair in the brush either on stairs or upholstery or really anything there's also a long one like a broom.
Hello Hello! Do you have a suggestion for the best vacuum if you have a “Molly?” Thx!

If you have a furminator it works great on carpets as well! Gets all the little fur strands out

We have one of each. But always had dogs growing up not so much cats. Don’t mind until cleaning kitty litter and hair!!

When I see the amount of dog hair in my vacuum canister I ask the dogs, "why aren't you naked"?
I put a half cup of vinegar in the wash, it helps to keep cat hair from clinging to my clothes.
Totally off topic, but where did you get that plaid sweater? It looks so warm and cute! @cleanmyspace
