Clean Cat Hair Off Carpet

Comb the cat's hair. Regular combing loosens and removes any shedding hair rather than the hair attaching itself to the ottoman.

Vacuum twice a week. The first vacuum is a thorough one--move the furniture, rugs, work on the pillows and drapes. The second vacuum--a few days later--is just a spot vacuum where the cat spends most of her time, such as that certain spot on the couch, bed, or where the sun falls on the floor.

Use an oversize lint roller. Once or twice a week, depending on how much the cat sheds, use a lint roller throughout the house. Look for a roller that has an extended handle and an oversize roll.

Spot clean with a squeegee on your cat's favorite resting places, the places where the most cat fur accumulates. The rubber edge of a squeegee picks up cat fur.
