Cinderella cleans up after the furries

Now that summer is on the way, the two cats are shedding like no tomorrow. They sit on my lap for five minutes and leave half a pound of cat hair behind them, despite almost daily brushing to try and get rid of all that excess hair. Neither of them are overly fond of the vacuum so I’m not too keen to try out the pet attachment on them. Of course, no sooner have I vacuumed the house from top to bottom, when I see a new bundle of fur bouncing merrily down the hallway carried on the wind like tumbleweed through Arizona. Where on earth does it keep coming from? Not to be deterred, I kept on with the cleaning because I sure don’t want to be doing any more of it this week. I whipped out the floor cleaner and now my house has the lovely scent of pina colada!

No I didn’t spill the contents of my blender on the floor. In a bid to determine the source of Rosie’s allergy, I got rid of all the chemicals I routinely use in the house and replaced them with natural plant based products. I found a great range of them in the supermarket called Cinderella – they smell great, do the job properly and are safe for the furries as well. They might cost a bit more than your average household cleaner….but unlike other household cleaners, the Cinderella line is 100% biodegradable so it is better for the environment as well as the furries. Best of all, in supporting their product line, I’m also supporting young women and local business – the founder of Cinderella is Bex Gold (Pantene’s Young Woman of the Year 2006 – Business) who hails from the Gold Coast.

So what are you waiting for? Go get some Cinderella and I promise you, you might actually like cleaning your house.
