My cat has the same problems and I think all cats are the same, the only thing I can do is vacuum the rug everyday, that´s it.

Alot of white fur - White Persian with a lot of fur
Well having seven cats myself I know what you are talking about, there is no way to get rid of the problem short of shaving your cat. But what I use to get rid of the hair is a really good lint brush I find it easier then taking out a vacume every time.

Thanks for your response ! I'm curios how did you manage to have seven cats. Is it hard to take care of all of them ?

Vacuum your carpets and wash the blankets and sheets on your bed more often. That has been my only solution.

I have 3 of them and I brush them everday. If you dont you will have the hair problems. And especially now because they are shedding their old hair for the summer time. At least mine are. Also giving them a bath a couple times a year is good too. But if you dont know how to do that I suggest you take them to the groomers. You will see a big difference.

The bath is difficult because I didn't done this before to my cat. As I know him I will have for sure hard time with this.

Poor diet is a big cause of excess shedding. Check your cat food label for fillers such as grains, corn, etc. Try switching to a quality, grain free food and see if that doesn't help. Daily brushing will also reduce the amount of hair around the house, as well as vacuuming a few times a week.

OK thanks for you response , I will verify the label . I don't buy cheap food for my cat but maybe it could be a problem I'll check anyway .

We have a LOT of pets here so I find it's best to just do a quick vacume every day. It only takes a few minutes! You could also brush your cat daily. This helps pull out the loose fur in a way that you can gather it up easily and throw it away before it gets everywhere.
