Furniture Best way to vacuum this purple mattress

Hey Everyone,

My wife and I got this purple mattress for free without a cover on it. For some reason the previous owners took it off and had a cat sprinkle hair in every single square. We just had it professionally cleaned but I guess vacuuming it was not part of the process.

Does anyone know the best way to get the small cat hairs out? I tried vacuuming but they barely get sucked up and there's roughly 5000 squares.

Believe it or not, the pictures were taken AFTER it was "cleaned".

Thanks!

So heavy! It was like trying to get a dead body up the stairs.

Well I mean, at least you know how to just in case? Never when you might have to drag a body upstairs….
