<div>What do you do? <br/> <br/>I have 2 wonderfully sweet and adorable older cats - both declawed and spade/nuetered - totally loving, not a mean bone in their bodies. <br/> <br/>I also have a newborn on the way - Due Sept. 7th. <br/> <br/>Any suggestions on how to maintain a happy and harmonious home for the kitties and the baby? <br/> <br/>The father has the baby room hermetically sealed - nearly. <br/> <br/>What has worked for you?</div> <div> posted in <a href="http://covered-in-hair.tribe.net">People covered in dog and cat hair</a> - 2 replies </div>

<div>I'm having trouble with my cats being selectivcely incontinent. The girl cat pees on the floor by the litter box every day and sh#ts on the rug. The boy cat peed in my room-mate's clothes right in front of her and somebody pooed INsisde my backpack, ON my clean clothes. What the hell? They are both mature adult cats who have been fixed since they were very little. The litter box is kept clean, they do use it and we haven't switched brands of litter or food or anything. Nobody's sick, this is purely behavioral. Help!! Any ideas?</div> <div> posted in <a href="http://covered-in-hair.tribe.net">People covered in dog and cat hair</a> - 2 replies </div>

<div>Hello, I'm new to this site and of course this tribe, and I'm loving it! <br/> <br/>I was wondering if anybody has any suggestions on how to introduce and adult dog to my adult cat. My cat used to live with a dog before she came to me, but the dog has never had mush to do with cats.</div> <div> posted in <a href="http://covered-in-hair.tribe.net">People covered in dog and cat hair</a> - 5 replies </div>

<div>Turns out I've got it. again. I had it as a child and thought it was history. (I grew up with smokers and wall to wall carpeting.) I think the new dog - who sheds more than the three cats combined; cold weather; closed windows and dust just created the perfect conditions for it asthma to come back. <br/> <br/>do any of you have asthma or bad allergies and how do you deal with it? I'm considering hiring someone to clean my house once a week.</div> <div> posted in <a href="http://covered-in-hair.tribe.net">People covered in dog and cat hair</a> - 8 replies </div>

<div>I am new to the tribe and happy to consider myself a human furrball. We (my husband and I) have a black lab/retriever mix (Jet) and a border collie (Dakota). Although we have mostly hardwood floors, I still vaccum every other day and use my favorite tool, the swifter, on the floors.

<div>has anyone done it long distance? I'm planning a 3 day trip when I move to the midwest this summer. I'll have 3, possibly 4, cats. I plan to have them each in their own carrier and to stay in pet friendly hotels along the way. I dread the whining but the ferals will not allow me to sedate them day after day. There motto is "fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice,.. well you can't fool me twice," in the words of our Presidente. I'm thinking about putting those two in one big carrier since half the time they comfort each other (they other half they try to kill each other), any suggestions about that? bad idea, good idea?</div> <div> posted in <a href="http://covered-in-hair.tribe.net">People covered in dog and cat hair</a> - 13 replies </div>

<div>Hey everyone &amp;lt;waves wildly>. I'm Z, and I am covered in both Anais and Ling hair (that's dog and cat, respectively). Both animals are black, furry, lazy city animals that shed like it's nobody's business, so I think this tribe applies to me. <br/> <br/>Most recently, I have become so desperate to get the cat hair off of my comforter cover that I have resorted to using long strips of duct tape rather than the vac. I feel stupid, but it works. I find myself dumping between five and six containers full of Anais,Ling, and Z hair out of the removable vaccum compartment each time I vac my small apartment, which is about 3 times a week (thank god my husband doesn't shed too). I finally decided to listen to my mother when she said that I should start brushing Anais every single day (Anais is a lab mix and has the hair length just short of a golden or a border collie). Meanwhile, Ling the cat looks like a black fur stole but seems to shed much less than Anais, and yet, her hair is stickier on the furniture. Go figure. <br/> <br/>Anyway, love the tribe and can't wait to exchange eyedeers.</div> <div> posted in <a href="http://covered-in-hair.tribe.net">People covered in dog and cat hair</a> - 1 reply </div>

<div>My cats follow me around, everywhere in my house. They have to be in the same room as me. And when I am in the shower, they wait on the mat. They talk to me, a lot.... almost too much. And they demand my attention every waking minute. When I read, Ace, my big boy, does the creep... he starts out on the periphery of the pages, and stealthily he shifts his body into position, which is always across the entire book. Midnight, my girl, drools when she purrs, and that is really the only bad thing about her... oh, and she yells at me when she has not recieved adequate attention. <br/> <br/>Do you all have these same issues? I thought cats were supposed to be the independant of the two most domesticated animals. What have I done to them? <br/> <br/>I am really not complaining, I just wanted to introduce you all to my pleasure hell...

She thinks I'm petting her, and the fur that would've ended on my work clothes doesn't!

<div>A victim finds his son's dog-hair-covered video game controllers at a pawnshop, giving Lynnwood police a lead into as many as 10 apartment break-ins. <br/>Police caught up with the suspected burglars after Detective Doug Teachworth and burglary victim Jeff Morin were able to link the suspects to stolen merchandise sold at a game store and several pawnshops. <br/> <br/>Teachworth was investigating two burglary cases at an apartment complex when he came across Morin, who said he had found his stolen PlayStation games at a nearby game store that trades and buys used video games. <br/> <br/>"We saw my son's game controllers, and I spotted one of our games on the shelf. I knew it was ours right away because it had my dog's hair all over it," Morin said. <br/> <br/>Morin had the clerk pull down the controller, telling him in advance it would be covered in white dog hair. <br/> <br/> <br/>full article at: http://www.heraldnet.com/Stories/04/4/20/18503659.cfm</div> <div> posted in <a href="http://covered-in-hair.tribe.net">People covered in dog and cat hair</a> - 0 replies </div>

<div>My gain can be your gain; we are getting a new sofa and want to GIVE you our old one. It’s a beautiful full size work of art with a new microfiber slipcover. Measuring a full 88 inches long it will seat three full grown adults comfortably and up to six not so full sized individuals all squished in. See some pics at http://f2.pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/exhaust_nut/album?.tok=ph5WjZABQL9fa.Qo&amp;.dir=/FREE+sofa!&amp;.src=ph <br/> <br/>Come and get it! First come first serve so don’t wait. We only have one of these babies to give away and once its gone there will be no more. (cats and dog not included) <br/> <br/>You can reach me at exhaust_nut@yahoo.com</div> <div> posted in <a href="http://covered-in-hair.tribe.net">People covered in dog and cat hair</a> - 0 replies </div>
