Turns out it is a plain old rubber squeegee ..... source is houseoutlook dot com.

We all love our pets, but we don’t love cleaning up their fur. It gets everywhere from the couch to our clothes, but no spot is more stubborn than the rug. Fur embeds itself in the fibers, especially the high-pile variety, and replenishes itself on a daily basis. If you’re tired of vacuuming to no avail as your cat or dog looks on in terror, oblivious to the fact that they’re the reason you’re performing this chore, try a squeegee.

In addition to being gentle on the rug (or carpet, for that matter), a squeegee is a veritable magnet for pet hair. Use it the same way you would on anything else: Run the rubber blade along the rug’s surface in a sweeping motion, allowing you to easily lift and gather the pet hair. From there, use the vacuum as you normally would — only now, it’ll get rid of all the fur, not just surface-level debris

Microfiber cloths are also good for removing lint from clothing.

Often found when cleaning my car, that the gloves I used for food prep work pretty well. 

For our old carpet, I rake the carpet with "18" Multi Surface Sturdy Outdoor Coconut Bristle Upright Garden Broom" from Home Depot. I've purchased it twice.  It gets up husky hair and leaves, etc.

 Now that I think about it, when I needed to remove cat hair, I'd put on a pair of rubber gloves and wipe the area with my hands. 

Hair would come off very easily.
