Title: Do you have long haired cats. Use rollers etc to remove fur ?
Post by: Philip on April 23, 2012, 22:58:09 PM: having 5 ragdoll cats I get through sticky rollers like no tomorrow. Their fur gets on all my clothes. Each roller costs £4.99 (I use 3M ones).

I have just got this from ebay and its a Godsend. you brush you're clothes/fabrics/furniture with it and it picks up the fur. You use the lever to clean the brush and the fur is collected inside a compartment. When full, you just open the compartment and empty the fur.

Its awesome and at this price, I will save around £60. 00 a year at least.

Just wanted to share.

Post by: Philip on April 23, 2012, 23:34:40 PM: Seriously I have been using it all day and have ordered 2 more.

It's fantastic !!!

Having 5 ragdolls is a nightmare for fur on clothes.

Post by: Susanne (urbantigers) on April 25, 2012, 09:05:17 AM: Managed to see it now and it looks and sounds great. I get through sticky rollers like nobody's business. I used to buy glove type things but it worked out too expensive. Not helped by the fact that I tend to wear black or dark grey trousers to work :shify: My work colleagues are used to me being covered in hairs now and you should see my chair at work!

Post by: Dawn F on April 25, 2012, 09:10:52 AM: ordered this morning, will let you know how we get on, oh is particularly moany about black trousers being covered in hair!
Title: Re: Do you have long haired cats. Use rollers etc to remove fur ?
Post by: Philip on April 25, 2012, 16:43:07 PM: Used mine for three days now and its still great. Have ordered 2 more. (one for my bag).

Really nice knowing I wont have to buy any more rollers. The other benefit is much less waste for the environment.

Susanne I have dark work trousers and it works really well on them. The brush has two sides. When you clean the fur into the inside container using the lever, it flips the brush to the other side. I have found each side works better in different directions (one side works better brushing upwards, the other brushing downwards).

Title: Re: Do you have long haired cats. Use rollers etc to remove fur ?
Post by: Rosella moggy on April 27, 2012, 23:25:09 PM: It's very good Philip :)

I don't need it for clothes so much (being a jeans kinda purrson) but really quite impressed at how it removes fur from sleeping areas e.g. cat tree, fleece bedding, chair rug and blanket throws. Was going to throw out the blanket throws as tumble drier now fighting a loosing battle on them. Intend to try it out on the cat beds when I can find time :wow:

Cheers
