An apparatus (10) and a device (30) are provided for catching pet
hair during the process of bathing a pet in a bathtub (12) or sink-like
structure. Typically the apparatus (10) is comprised of a net (18)
having a selected mesh size which is stretched over the bottom of the bathtub (12)
and held in place with hooks (26) attached to the bottom of the bathtub
12 via integral suction cups (24). The device (30) combines
functional features of the apparatus (10) into a screen (38) for
catching pet hair which is held rigid in a frame (32) made of a pliable
material which engages and grips the bottom of the bathtub (12) and allows
water to drain out to the drain (22) of the bathtub (12).
