Have been looking at carpet sweepers following Mummyfrugal's post - are they better at picking up cat hairs than hoovers? I have a British Shorthair which has an astonishingly thick coat and she is shedding her winter coat at the moment - my carpets are felted!!!
I have two cats, both shedding and a Dyson Animal - I honestly cannot fault it and I am a real fusspot when it comes to hair on the carpets :rolleyes:. I use it on my carpets, laminate flooring and quarry tiles in the kitchen and it picks up anything and everything.
Good luck at finding something suitable

I have a Spitz with a coat approx 6" long and 2 white cats :eek:. I had a the original Dyson DC01 which died after 12 years loyal use. I was fortunate enough to be given a Miele CatnDog via freecycle which puts anything else I've ever used in the shade...except on a couple cheapish 'felted' rugs which only respond to dragging the edge of my trainers across them. While wearing them, of course 2

I am sure someone must have posted this in the other thread, but I'll openly admit to not reading all of it!:p
I have started using Stardrops in the washing machine and dishwasher. I have noticed that in the washing machine I haven't has any white powder marks on clothes whjen I have tried to squeeze a bit too much in it, so thats a bonus too. They dishwasher cleans really well with it too, though I did peek a look while it going once and bubble came out the bottom, so don't use too much!:rotfl:2 -

I use stardrops for everything, washing up and cleaning.
my cleaning mix is 1/3 each of stardrops, water and vinigar....also works for burnt on pans or grill trays, spray liberally every 30 mins then after an hour wash off.2 -
I decided to use up old lipsticks I'd gone off the colour of and use a couple I'd won from Rimmel but wasn't keen on the colour. I mixed the lipstick with some vaseline and pressed into an empty container I had then placed in the fridge to chill. Voila, I now have lipgloss I'll wear rather than a lipstick I won't.CC2 = £8687.86 ([STRIKE]£10000[/STRIKE] )CC1 = £0 ([STRIKE]£9983[/STRIKE] ); Reusing shopping bags savings =£5.80 vs spent £1.05.Wine is like opera. You can enjoy it even if you don't understand it and too much can give you a headache the next day J4

I'm another stardrops fan. I've recently been filling a sports type water bottle, 1 section stardrops, 1 section vinegar and the rest water. (I hope you understand what I mean by section can't think of any other way to describe it (:o) Anyway, it means that I can direct the squirt when cleaning under the rim in the toilet etc and just put a good squirt into a bucket of hot water for most uses. So far it's been fine.:)I use stardrops for everything, washing up and cleaning.
