...and sorry to read about breathing difficulties. We don't allow our cat in the bedrooms at night; she's locked in the kitchen/sitting room. And because this area is her home*, she doesn't sleep on our beds or spend much time in our bedrooms during the day. Plus we purchased a new 'animal fur' vacuum cleaner to suck up all the hairs...quite a few times a week. It's a constant battle of the fur.


*she actually loves her space. When we have guests round for dinner, if they stay late, she's start to walk around and around the kitchen table, as if to say, 'go home I want to relax'. She's also happy when we go to bed after watching a late film.

Ah there's the answer to my fur concerns. This is a lovely photo, her colours match a blue background so well. Love the outstretched paw, ready to play with any passing object or bird.

Our couple/few days away was a good hair test and we did collect quite a bit in that time as its getting mid summer warm now.. It's probably going to be an issue as Kim was having some breathing problems at points last night and we had to change out our bedding and air the place out. Probably didn't help that I turned the hallway fan on high and stirred it all up really good.... We have about three weeks to figure this out if we want seek the refund but I think we're already too attached so the sufferers will probably agree to suffer. Even I get a little bit of a reaction in my throat but I think we will all adapt over time to where it's not an issue. We'll see..

Gorgeous coat but hope she doesn't shed copious amounts of fur.
