Buffy Sneezing

No, she doesn't have a cold.

I've been giving her weekly groomings with the Furminator. She's only
my second ever cat but Persia sure didn't shed like Buffy does. OMG,
it's awful!

Fortunately she loves the Furminator grooming tool. She turns from side
to side and purrs like crazy, rubs her face in my hand. Meanwhile I'm
getting a TON of fur off, mostly down her back towards the base of the tail.

So we had a nice grooming session. Then while I was "furminating her"
she started sneezing.

I started laughing. See? This is why I'm doing this! You have way too
much pretty kitty fur! When I pet you it floats off and makes ME sneeze!

I need to vacuum again. I hate to vacuum. I really wish I could just
push a button and *vrooom* have the whole house vacuumed. Just suck out
all the dust and cat fur. Hey, I can dream, can't I?

Others have dreamed that.

THAT is why there is Roomba, and it's clones.

Yes, Roomba will do a good job on cat fur (but not the deep-down
dirt--that takes a regular vacuum). Unfortunately, Roomba is expensive;
and it can get stuck on cords/cables.

True, except a Roomba can't vacuum the drapes or dust the tables.
