Hi everyone. We have a rather annoying problem at home that needs to be fixed every few months: water keeps backing up in the shower until I eventually have to use a pump to remove the nasty hair and debris from the drain. Once that's done, the water starts backing up heavily again after just a few weeks.

Do you have any suggestions on how to prevent this issue in the first place? I’m really not comfortable with my current method ;-) Thanks in advance for your tips and experiences.

If you constantly find yourself fishing out hair, at least you know the cause and can tackle it head-on 😉
There are also strainers, a hair brush for pre-cleaning, or even a hairdresser voucher as a preventive measure.

Our cat also sheds a lot in winter. Currently, we do not bathe her but wash her in the basin.

Is that supposed to be a hint about my dear wife?! I’m not going to rinse her off with the garden hose just because she’s shedding.
