It is attracted to you like an infatuated lover
then sticks like metal to a magnet.
It flies like fluff from a dandelion,
tickling your nose like a feather.
It will find its way into everything but your heart.
No matter what you do,
it will always be with you.
If you have a feline beware,
there’s no end to the cat hair.

Getting a dog that doesn't shed is the smartest thing I've ever done. The cat is the worst in the spring! If she sneezes the hair will fly! ~L

Yeah, you're right, Lori. My half Yorkie, half Schnauzer definitely does not shed.

I don't have a cat. Not because I don't like them, but because I have two large dogs that would likely make a snack out of it. They can come in or go out on their own and they do prefer to be out. They shed their undercoat in the Spring and Fall, but little of it comes inside.  

Pass the Glade if you're going to do that here...

Lucky dogs!
I've had dogs of all shapes and sizes over the years and they all have shed something awful. But nothing sheds like my yellow cat.
She has a med coat and spends as much time outside as inside year round so her under coat is thick. Come spring she all but leaves a trail~L

Sure glad I'm only reading about it!

When our last 'animal' and Irish Setter, died,  (we've had them all, i think - monkies, coatamundi, birds of all types, cats, dogs, all the small rodents and squirrels, possums and so forth . . .)about ten years ago, we decided we'd had enough and it's been so wonderful without all the pet hair, feathers, yucky stuff, dandruff and other thinks inherent ... as much as we loved and enjoyed them, I can't come near telling you how WONDERFUL it's been . . .

Now my neighbor at the end of the block just had some puppies (giving me first choice>; my wife's co-worker has this cat --- and that add in the paper today for a parrot . . . - sheesh! You just never loose the desire!!!!

Enjoyed, my friend
