Maybe I'll try Kensington one last time. I had the big square one with four buttons. I was referring to the rollers on the bottom, but never knew how to open it. Never considered problem from cat hair (I assume that I can give equal blame to my dog as well-have to treat my two boys the same although cat spends more time in here with me).
