    I hoover regularly, brush her coat out, wash her bedding etc....

    But after a morning cuddle and bit of a swoom round my legs, you can clearly see white cat hairs on my black work clothes!

    Worse, some items seem to act like cat hair magnets in the washing machine and come out hairy!

    Any advice/recommendations?

    A rubber glove! Works a treat!

    I've actually been using a damp rubber glove, but it seems to work better on some items than others.

    A damp rubber glove and I also use the sticky roller brushes. I prefer the disposable sticky paper on those to normal clothes brushes, I think they pick up more stuff.

    Lint rollers. My sister has 3 cats, one of whom is almost completely white, and she swears by the lint rollers from Ikea. They're so cheap but do a really good job.

    And for white Boxer x Springer hair that has more clinging power than Solvite... duct tape! :D

    I love the clothes roller. But like Pumpkinseeds said, the rip-away ones are so much better. They don't last very long but the paper is so sticky it removes everything!

    Anything rubber. I have a small hand held rubber brush and it works wonders on clothes, carpet etc.

    Plain old parcel tape is also great.

    These are actually really good http://www.jmldirect.com/uk/laundry/fastfit-sticky-rollers-for-lint-fluff+pet-hair-removal-2-pack/invt/f0esr10100000001 Homestore and More and Heatons have them..

    Have to say they are fantastic, id be the same I dust brush, brush, sweep mop and the hair is still there these take it all away
