My brother used somethng tht he sprayed on his cat when I came to visit
and he vacuumed the house adn actually dusted a bit:-) It helped a great
deal, but I would hesitte to own a cat and have to coat it with whatever
al the time. If I did not, I wold havve severe breathing and come cole to
not brerathing. It can be tat bad.

My Plasticote idea was a joke, Wendy. I don't think a spraying of that would
do much good for the cat....
