a fifth went as far as to say they weren\u2019t prepared for the hair and muck their furry friend would create.<\/p>\n<p>It also emerged 32 percent have been left red-faced after guests had pet hair in their food, with 15 percent refusing to invite people into their home as a result.<\/p>\n<p>Luke Harding, <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/general\/\"

or insurance, ruining furniture or shedding all over the house \u2013 they can be a handful.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut they can also give back so much more, and I think our research just goes to show that no matter how much hair or embarrassment your pet may cause, they are still worth the graft.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The study also found 35 percent of pet owners wished their fluffy pals didn\u2019t shed so much hair, with 28 percent feeling like they spend all of their time cleaning up fur from around the house.<\/p>\n<p>In fact, the average owner estimates they spend two hours and 18 minutes a week sweeping and vacuuming up unsightly pet hair.<\/p>\n<p>The sofa, clothes, in their bed and even their mouth are among the spots that frequently gather canine and feline hairs.<\/p>\n<figure

they reached a point where they \u2018accepted\u2019 their home would always be riddled with cat or dog hairs, and simply stopped caring \u2013 taking a year and eight months to get to this point.<\/p>\n<p>It also emerged 24 percent find they notice pet hairs less often in other people\u2019s homes than their own.<\/p>\n<p>But 61 percent even find themselves questioning how their animal\u2019s hair has managed to find its way into the most unusual of places.<\/p>\n<p>And 38 percent claimed dogs are the biggest culprits when it comes to leaving fur lying around the house.<\/p>\n<p>Despite the research findings, conducted via OnePoll, seven in 10 wouldn\u2019t dream of getting rid of their pet for a cleaner house.<\/p>\n<p>Although 41 percent think they need to replace their broken or tired vacuum cleaner to make lighter work of the pet\u2019s shedding coat around their home.<\/p>\n<p>Luke Harding added: \u201cKeeping on top of animal hair in your home can be tricky \u2013 especially when you can\u2019t see it and it\u2019s not until you find it on your clothes that you realize it\u2019s there.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut a decent vacuum and cleaning schedule can make a huge difference \u2013 tackle the hair before it gets elsewhere.<\/p>\n<p><em>This story originally appeared on\u00a0<a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"
