Stopping a cat from shedding

[Lisa]

I ran into someone once that said he handled the shedding problem by vacuum-cleaning the cat, with one of those tools used for small floor areas. Just like brushing it, except the hair and dander didn't get anywhere except the cleaner.

By the way, the cat apparently liked it.

I tried that on my cat.... I've never seen a cat soooo terrified. He's more afraid of the vacuum then the shower... I had a dog that you had to put in another room when you vacuumed though, she would come up and bump you until you vacuumed her.
