Have you tried one of those things that looks like a window scraper? It supposedly is able to pull the hair out, not just sweep it off. It has a plastic handle with a rubber -like blade. Check your local pet supply store or a pet catalog.

I also found a glove that seems to be made of a type of stiff "velvet". You wipe it one way, and it picks up hair. WIpe it the opposite way to clean it off.

I have a Kuvasz (long, white hair-90 pound dog), a mixed breed terrier (short wiry type, white, black and brown hair-25 pound dog) and a black cat.

Pick a color-pick a texture, you'll probably find it here!

Does it not occur that some people do not worry about such things as pet furr unless you are out and about among people to whom such a vestige of "barnyard" appearance is a problem? Even in this modern age one will know or remember that when going here or there may make a difference as to what
one might wear?

Well, I've lived with cats all my life so, no, a little cat hair doesn't bother me on my clothes or on my friends. Unless I'm going for a job interview and then I want the navy suit to be as clean as I can get it.

But the problem I have with our costumes is that the wool gown seems to attract an unusually heavy amount of lint, dust, cat hair, people hair and heaven knows what else to it. I've already gone through one lint roller and I'm working on a second just trying to keep the thing from looking like it's been drug through a barn. I can go through a yard of packing tape just cleaning the sleeve.

It's ok that it looks like a gown worn by a man who owns a cat. Right now it looks like it's a gown owned by a homeless man who sleeps in the stable with the dogs. That's not the image I'm going for with this outfit. :)
