Well, unfortunately---there is no way. But, here's an idea for you---I have one: Blair Catalog (women's clothing company) has a T-shirt that reads: You're never fully dressed unless you're covered in cat hair". Now, there IS one way, which I do with my cat. I have a very long-haired (almost to the floor) pure white Turkish Angora Cat. He will go thru spells of shedding huge wads of hair all over the place. So, late spring/early summer, I take him to the groomer and get all that hair shaved off of him---and he LOVES it. When the weather gets warmer, he HATES all that hair on him and actually goes into a depression until I get him to the groomer. Now, if these are short-hair cats, try putting some "Line-a-Tone for cats (get it at any pet store) and either put on their food or use the dropper provided and just squirt a little into your cats mouth, holding his/her mouth shut with head back--they HAVE to swallow. This is good product that will stop a lot of the shedding while giving their coat a nice sheen. Good luck with this.

There is nothing that can be done if you want to keep the cats - which you obviously do!!! I have 4 cats, and there is hair everywhere.
I dont let my cats upstairs - it took a while for them to learn, but they've got the gist now. At least i know that there's no hair on the kids beds etc.
I just need to hoover everyday - I use a dyson, which i find really good with pet hair. I've also got wooden floors everywhere - not carpet, so that helps the problem.

Grooming is the only way, besides getting rid of the cats.
But ... instead of using a brush (which can strip out the wrong hair), stroke your cats while wearing rubber gloves. The loose hair sticks to the gloves and can be easily removed by running your gloved hands together to form the loose hair into a ball.
It is easy to do as your cats like the stroking and there is no pulling that can happen with brushes and combs.
You can still use a comb or brush - on your medium and long hair cats - but just once a week rather than everyday.

Give your cats to a good friend in exchange for three of their kids. Within a week you'll realize that brushing three cats two or three times a week is so much easier. Pick a consistant phrase and pitch to call the kitties. Mine is a high pitched "Kitties". Buy every grooming brush you can find until you find one that your kitties like to be brushed with. (mine only like a flea brush ) Try to brush them daily to start. The same time of day. Don't fret if they run away, they'll be back. DON"T PULL THEIR HAIR. A brushful a day is better than none. But always keep in mind....A HUNK OF FUR IN THE BRUSH.......DID NOT END UP ON THE COUCH!!!!!! Good luck, be consitant, and love them as much as they love you.

Grooming the cats at lest twice a week will help alot. If you brush them alot then there will be less hair for them to shed. I have a cat that sheds alot as well and this is the only thing that helps my house from becoming a cat hair disaster. But grooming is the best option. Plus it gives you time to bond with each cat. Hope this helps and good luck!
Ok I just have to add. I just took my cat to the vet and I asked her about my cats shedding problem as well and she told me to put him on a hairball Formula. She said that with the excessive amount of shedding it could cause hairballs and the formula will help with the shedding as well. I've put him on Purina One Special Care Advanced Nutrition Hairball Formula. He really seems to like it. Try this and I hope this will help. Sorry for such the late info. Good luck.

Well its a natural thing for cats to lose fur. Are they mainly inside cats? If they are you may want to look at letting them outside at times, maybe build an enclosure if you rather.
Cats are able to be trained somewhat, so maybe have a chair in which is theres to sit on and have a rug there.
Without knowing too much about them its hard to give the correct advice. Hope this helps somewhat.

Its a continuous job vacuuming up after them but they keep the pests away. there's not alot you can do about that unless you make them a comfy room apart from the house. You could make it their very own crib, where they can lay about and hang all they want. Cat hair and all.

I have two cats and I find that the only answer is to keep ahead of it by constantly dusting and vacuuming or it gets ahead of you.Like anything else,if you love them then it's a burden of love.

Power white powders or cover with silver papers, places you dont want your cat to go and lose their hair there.
