It's that time of year when the cats start shedding their winter fur!
With nine cats, that's a lot of fur.
It gets everywhere, the floors are covered, the sofa and chairs, the bed, and the clean laundry usually has to be washed again.
To help with this problem, we try to brush the cats. The best is every day, but there just isn't enough time to do that! We take turns with the cats. When they are settled, somebody will give them a good brushing. Most of the cats like it, Fred and Alan tolerate it, they let us know when they've had enough by biting at the brush!
Another thing that helps is vacuuming the floors. Most of the floors are wood. I gave up on carpet a long time ago! Most days, the floors get swept, vacuumed, and mopped. Missing one day is alright, but if I miss two days, I think I could make another cat from the amount of fur lying around!
The sofa has throw blankets on it, which get washed once a week. While they are drying, I go over the sofa with a lint roller.
A lint roller is needed for all our clothes. Just before leaving the house, I try to go over my clothes, especially if I'm wearing dark clothes!
I complain about all the extra work I have to do, but the cats make me smile and keep me company.
Just a few photos of cats being cute!
