Do you try to avoid getting animal hair on your clothes?

yeah but unfortunately my girl has a white cat.

I spend alot of time with a tape roller in my apartment and brushing the cat. Still that ******* cat is a mess and wrecking my place slowly.

Yes - I try to avoid having my parents' airedale terriers jump around on my polished shoes as well. Both with sometimes limited success.

My gf and I have four Yorkies. Fortunately, they don't shed. I end up with more of my gf's blonde hairs on me than any of theirs.

That said, yes, of course I try to avoid big labs and such from jumping up on me. I often find that the worst thing for my clothes, however, in particular knits and ties, are the claws of the little buggers as they try to jump up on you. I lost a beautiful Brioni tie the first day I wore it because one of the Yorkies was eager to see me get home.

Animal hair is for rural population (farmers).

I don't avoid getting it on my clothes because I love my Mainecoon too much, but I certainly don't let it stay on there. I have adhesive lint rollers all over the place.

Color doesn't matter. The cat will ensure it gets fur all over your most formal garments.

Geez, let me see . . . I just went and measured him, and he's 24 inches from head to butt and 16 inches off the ground. Big mo-fo. Not fat at all, just big.

You didn't include the length of the tail?
