Washing pet beds, or even your own bedding if a pet has been sleeping on it, can clog up your washing machine with gunge as the hairs become massive hairballs and block the filters. Best to get rid of it first. I use an old washing up brush to gather up the hairs, then give them a good shake outside before putting the items in the machine.
Could save you money in the long run, by not having to call out someone to sort out a machine that has ground to a halt, and is leaking all over the floor.

I've got five cats. I vacuum the bedclothes with one of the brush attachments before laundering. Works for me, although probably would be hard with an upright. I have a canister-style vacuum. Bet that little car vac would work, if you have a brush attachment.
