Does pet hair stick easily to these sheets, or do they somewhat repel it? If it does stick, does it wash out easily, or does it clump and pill?

My sheets are still fairly new, but I have not had any pilling yet. We do not have any pets, so I can't answer about pet hair, but the sheets have a smooth surface, so I would not think pet hair would stick unduly.

I haven't noticed pet hair sticking to the sheets but I do keep a light blanket on the bed at all times. My two dogs sleep on the bed but the hair is always on the blanket.

Cat fur does stick to the sheets, but it washes off easily. I have never had an issue with pilling with these sheets. (For the record, I have never had sheets that cat fur did not stick to.) I really like these sheets.

I have a cat that is presently shedding. Its very difficult to remove the car hair from the sheets by just brushing. Washing in a washing machine with warm water removes all/any excess hair.

I'm the person that said it knots up when it gets washed. It will knot up more and more as you wash it; It would probably take 5 to 10 washings to be totally knotted up. Once it is knotted up it loses that super soft rabbit-hair softness I like. Pill is when it knots up; so yes it pills if you wash it. It does not shed.

The bage is very durable. The thread count is quite high and it doesn't pill after washing at all. I think these sheets are going to far outlast any of our regular sheets. We wash it every two weeks as advised on the info. that came with the sheets.

I have not noticed any pilling/shedding thus far. We've had it over 2 mos. only.

I use these for puppies and I just toss them in the washer on the "normal" setting. I wash them every day. No issues so far.

I think what actually removes the pet hair is the dryer itself, not the sheets. If you look at all the stuff you clean off your lint filter, you can see the hair in there too. So the wool balls will do just as good a job as the dryer sheets did, meaning your dryer itself will continue to draw the lint and hair into the lint catcher. I think you'll be pleased! (I have a cat, not a dog, but they get the job done just fine.)

When I used regular dryer sheets they didn't remove cat hair so I haven't noticed that dryer balls do either! My cat's hair always ends up on the dryer filter even if I don't use anything in the dryer!

We use them a lot with stray cats and wildlife--I use unscented laundry detergent, and throw them in my washer on a regular cycle- sometimes, a gentle cycle depending on how many I am washing-I use a warm/warm or a hot/cold water setting-then I dry in the dryer, no scented sheets or fabric softeners and I set the dryer on a gentle or no wrinkle--they dry really really fast so keep an eye on them, if not I air dry and it does not take long--they come out a bit softer but clean and just as insulating and warming as before. Hope this helps you Patricia

I took it off and use regular fitted sheets with a nice thread count. Mine didn't slide off too badly, but I still replaced it with regular sheets because they are easy to wash, and microfiber, which is what the cover is made of, collects too much dust. It's a great bed otherwise!

I wash them on delicate cycle with small amount of detergent. I air dry also when the sun shines. I also purchase these for stray cats to put in my homemade cat houses for them especially in the winter. My cats at home and the strays love these. Unfortunately though if they get too frisky with the pads with their claws, they do destroy them easily. But you cannot beat the price. Thanks for asking and enjoy your Purr Padds!!!Ruby :)

I wash mine. I love it. It keeps the wind chill off of me. I actually use it to sleep with nightly, so I wash it frequently with my sheets. Still holding the color and doesnt fade. I low dry it alone/ AIR DRY

These are very easy to care for. I cloth diaper, so I just put these in the diaper load and wash. My wash consists of warm rinse, hot wash with oxy clean & Purex (No fabric softeners or bleach), cold rinse, extra rinse on hot. I have put these in the wash with a regular load of clothes, as well. (Cold wash with Tide/fabric softener, no extra rinse) and they have come out fine, with no repelling issues. Hope this helps!!

Does any one have cats or a dog with very light fluffy hair, almost like clumps of goose down? How does this work for that?

Sorry, can't answer this question because I don't have pets at home. However, after many uses, the balls remain relatively clean and I don't have to remove even human hair from them.

My daughter's Lab has shed all over it and it comes off pretty easily, but wouldn't say it repels dog hair.

Have not washed mine. So far I have run the pet hair roller over it and it seems to at least get the really loose stuff off...but I bet it would wash just fine...you can also contact the company and ask or just wash a little bit of the bottom
