Our friends the animals, we love them, we cuddle them and they return it to us. Only downside in this great love story: the hair of our dogs and our cats that invade our house and our clothes. Fortunately, there are tricks to get rid of them… without having to take out the vacuum cleaner.
On the floor, on the sofa, on clothes or even on this very soft plaid where we like to curl up in the evening (and the cat too, rather during the day!)… When we like pets, their hair can quickly invade every corner of the house, to the point of quickly overtaking us. But who wants to vacuum every day, or almost ? Not us anyway, and that’s why we’re sharing our ultimate and truly amazing tip: use old spun tights! Strung on a broom, it will create static electricity which will capture all the hairs on the floor in minutes, like a magnet. A bit like the famous rags or dusters… but much cheaper!
More playful, but same principle using static electricity: pass a inflated balloon close to the hair-studded fabrics and watch them get sucked up like magic. Another proven method, especially on woolen clothes, which particularly attract hair: run a damp washcloth up and down, then the other way.

A coat to watch
In general, our dogs and cats renew their coat twice a year. Some hairs are rather heavy and easy to pick up, other fluffier ones tend to fly all over the place. One regular brushing, a real moment of well-being for some cats and dogs, is a must. One thing is certain: if you notice that the hair loss is more important than usual and that it seems abnormal to you, do not hesitate to consult your veterinarian.
This may be due to changes in habit, a big blow of fatigue, a deficiency in his diet (it should be varied and rich in nutrients) or excessive grooming and bathing. Finally, significant hair loss can also signal a hormonal problem or latent disease. In the slightest doubt, do not hesitate to consult!
