You're just going to have to buy all black clothes, so that the hairs won't show up! :evillaugh:

But I also have a white & black cat, and a calico  :-:

I think the answer is buying all clothes in a Barbara Woodhouse tweed  :)

 :shocked: Doh!
That's foiled that idea then!


Hmmmmmm not sure about the babs tweed tho! Maybe a nice 80's multi-coloured jumper-with-shoulder-pads-ensemble?  :rofl:

My spare bedroom is the ironing room and piled up with ironing on the double bed - Smudge used to lay on top of it all just like your Willow - in fact I had a tear in the eye when I saw the photo cos of them both being black.  However, Bonnie avoids the ironing for some reason, but she makes herself comfy in the middle of the cuddly toys at the other end of the bed as you can see in attached pic.  :Luv2: :rofl:

Aw Willow's just trying to show you she knows you like to be tidy, so she's keeping all the corners straight for you.

Very  :Luv:

Nope, never happens in this house. While I must confess to owning an ironing board its where I stack all my clean litter trays. :-[

I'm kind of with you Angie, I hate ironing to the extent that I actually avoid buying clothes that look as if they need it. I will also fold immediately the dryer stops to avoid having to iron - this is quite a handy trick if you can train yourself into it. I do do ironing, but only when it is unavoidable (pillowslips of you want the bed to look nice, teatowels, and the rare shirts for work that turn up in my wardrobe occasionally because I have a passion for cotton/linen.

Mine dont ever go on the ironing board, and the odd fosters that have tried it have been told off. I have to defluff enough of my clothes, although not as many now I got a new washer - I work in an office, so sadly have to iron every week.

Cody prefers the actual iron surf board to the pressed laundry

I am like you Jo, most of our clothes are no iron needed material except for some formal shirts for Cristiano, but used to dump the washed/dry clothes on bed and went on to do something else, well without a fail the next moment we would find Oliver comfortable nested himself right in the middle of the pile. 
So I had to pick up the habit of putting the clothes away immediately, but the white cat hair is inevitable on my clothes, and our winter clothes happens to be mostly fuzzy fleece with dark colours  :Crazy: :Crazy: :Crazy:

Isn't it nice when they help with the household chores!  ;D

Not much ironing goes on around here though.  Can't remember the last time my iron saw the light of day.  Actually, I can't even remember where it is  :rofl:
