and Cindi..
I live with 4 cats and am looking for #5... so cat fur is an issue.

I clean 2-3 times a week (quick clean with vaccuum on the rugs and "Swiffer" duster with Pledge sprayed on it for the bare floor areas). I brush my cats with a slicker.. and if you do it every day it really helps.

The other thing I learned is that cat hair sticks to rugs with Static electricity. If you take a spray bottle with clean water in it and mist the rugs, you break the static bond and the cat hair comes right up with the rotating brush head of the vaccuum.

Maybe you do all this stuff already.. or have better ideas..
Those of us with Cats (and now a German Shepherd!) are in a constant war with the hair.

Battle lines are drawn.. put on the dust mask and go at it!!!
