Cats next to vacuun cleaners

[ihavetotryagain]

Can you guys pleeeeease send photos of your cats (only if you have any) next to your vacs, it would be greatly appreciated, I need something to scream "AWWWWW!!!" to

Click my avatar to see my cat Lily, checking out a Kirby Heritage, up close and personal. You might say she's 'into' vacuums.

Not exactly what you're looking for, but...

When I went to go pick up my Windtunnel Dual V, the original owner had a cat. I was ecstatic to see it, and pet it a lot. The owner said that she (I think it was a she, but I'm not entirely sure) normally wasn't friendly, so the fact that she was to me is pretty cool. Also, when I was cleaning the machine out later that night, the Windtunnel portion of it was plugged up with cat hair. That probably gives some insight into its backstory lol.

AWWWW!! Lol she kinda looks grumpy, its almost as she's telling you to go away..

I think that probably indicates that the Hoover was the kitty's property, so she can clean up after herself Lol.

probably lol. I wonder how well those 4 brushes would've done at sweeping up cat hair, considering they were medium stiff when I got it (the cat was also grey-ish black if I remember correctly, by the way :]).

 

[ihavetotryagain]

You know.. I've always been quite curious about the performance from those Dual V vacuums, I remember being much younger and watching the commercial on youtube and being wowed by all the features they listed LOL

Same. I love them to death, even if they were a commercial failure for Hoover. Hopefully I can scrounge up the parts that it needs to be back up and running (which isn't a whole lot, at it's in decent condition from what I've seen. The only problems with it are a few cracked parts here and there, the dusting brush being nasty, having the Hoover lean, and it's headlight bulb being burnt out (why it's not the same type as previous generation WTs is beyond me), oh, and I also want to switch out the Twin Chamber cup for the Savvy bag set-up.

This is Louie.
Like his cat dad, he seems to have a thing for Orecks lately. He’s never cozied up to any other vacuums.

 

[tolivac]

Louie has both an Oreck and a Kirby.

 

[justjunque]

He does!
But, he really only cozies up to the Orecks. Before this one, I had a different Oreck there, and he was the same way with that one!
I should try an experiment, and rotate different brands to that spot, and see what he does. Maybe a Hoover Convertible next?
He's quite a character, that Louie! LOL

Maybe the soul of David Oreck got reincarnated as a Tabby lol.

Kind of off topic..

I was just watching this review that some automatic cat litter boxes were killing cats that were bought off Amazon.

 

[justjunque]

Kenny,

Thank you for posting that. We just use a conventional litter box. But, if your link reaches one person who has one of those dangerous ones, it’s worth it!
I can’t even imagine the horror of that happening.

Louie is my favorite out of all the kitties in this thread LOL

 

[suckolux]

Felix, not bothered by any of them!

 

[ihavetotryagain]

Felix

OH MY GOD!!! That's so cute! He's brushing himself

 

[kirbylux77]

David, those 2 pics of your cat with the vacuum are sooooo cute! Looks like he wanted to give his cheek a good scratch with the brush.

But hey, I am seeing a new vacuum there too. When did you get the Henry? Are you liking it? Give us a mini review please

 

[suckolux]

He for sure rubbed on it, not sure if marking or itch. Henry for 3 years? Love the sound, the power and the long lay flat cord! I trip on modern plastic like cords that loop from memory of the wrap or reel.

 

[ihavetotryagain]

What would be Felix's favorite vacuum cleaner? does he just like rubbing up on all of them or are there certain ones he likes? Has he noticed you have a huge collection of vacuums? or in cat terms, "Huge noise machines that daddy bothers me with"?
