M.K.
I have three cats all with different hair types. I'm always tempted to shave them but the short hair orange tabby is worse than the long hair black one so I don't think it matters. I use anti static spray on furniture before I vacuum it using a tool for hair. That makes the job a lot faster. I keep a lint roller around too. My house will never be cat hair free but I do keep certain rooms cat free. Keeping your cat indoors is helping keep the allergies and pollen out of the house.
