FAQs

How do you get pet hair out of a comforter?

To keep your comforter in top-notch condition, you can regularly vacuum it to suck out any trapped allergens, dust mites, and stray hairs that may have collected on the surface.

Alternatively, if you don't have a handheld vacuum and are looking for an affordable solution, we'd recommend pet hair removers that come as rollers, brushes, and tools to help shift those extra pesky cat and dog hairs.

If you're looking for an instant pet hair remover you can source in your own home, you can try to use lint rollers or tape to pick up loose hairs, or tumble-dryer sheets and rubber gloves to collect hairs using static.

What colour bedding hides pet hair the best?

If you're looking to keep any pet hair that does get attracted to your bedding more discreetly, you should choose bedding similar in colour tone to your furry companion's coat of hair. That way, it'll blend in a little. Result.

For breeds with lighter fur, we'd recommend bedding in the colours grey, beige, and even white for a particularly light coat.

For dogs and cats with darker fur, black, navy, or dark grey bedding would work best to help keep the stray hairs out of sight, and out of mind.

Which fabrics repel pet hair the best?

When choosing your bedding, the most important thing to consider is the material used as this is what will determine how 'sticky' the fabric is. We're here to help.

You should avoid:

High-static materials, which are likely to attract fur more easily. This includes loosely woven cotton, velvet, nylon, linen, acrylic, chenille, and velour.

Highly textured fabrics that are fluffy or embellished. These are more likely to trap hair between the threads, as well as being a risky business for pet claws.

You should choose:

Tight-knit materials that prevent pet hairs and other debris from getting trapped in between fibres. They are easier to rid of rogue fluff with a simple shake or wipe. We'd recommend tightly woven materials such as rayon, satin, silk, canvas, microfibre, and tight-knit cotton.

When shopping for the best comforter for pets, we would also advise choosing duvets or comforters that are machine-washable. Fur — combined with other potential accidents — means you’ll probably have to clean your bedding and put it through the machine more often than non-pet owners.

Now you know exactly what to look out for, we've listed some of the best fur-repelling comforters, duvet covers, bedspreads, and blankets on the market. This'll save you valuable time hunting that could otherwise be spent with your furry friend.
