When we first moved into our place in Cork, we had this rug on the floor. However, at that time, we didn't have a hoover, since we had no soft floors (all marble tile and laminate) we figured we could make do with a broom. How wrong we were! The poor rug, seemed to attract all the fluff and dust and hair from all over the house, and ended up being, well, almost black!
So, we took it up off the floor, since we had no way of sweeping it clean for the time being. Now, very recently we purchased a Dyson DC20 Animal. Since we realised that our broom sweeping efforts were just moving the fluff piles around. This weekend I spied the rug, rolled up behind the door, and figured I would do a little experiment. So down it went, and hoover it we did (for about an hour, and we emptied the Dyson bin 3 times I might add! Ewwwww!)
However, it is now beautifully cream and beige once more, and it's sooo nice having it back on the floor. It defines the living room from the kitchen and as you can see, the cats love rolling around on it, and can now often be found sitting at our feet while we watch tv!

Another reason the cats do this, I think, is because they prefer the rug black.. Just like them!
