My furnace filter has no dust, why?

My old house had two furnaces; a second one for a bedroom wing addition.
The second furnace filter never had to be changed; we apparently generated
little dirt in the bedrooms.

Maybe you are just clean!

How many cats do you use to heat the house in the winter? Can you buy them
by the cord?

You probably have a primary filter. Check at the return air vent.

Has the furnace run since the last time you changed the filter?

You might want to look at the Pumas thread, cat hair may not be the "throw
away" most people think it is.

Mine doesn't get very dusty either even with all the sawdust in the garage.
Has plenty of cat hair though.

You should send whoever cleans your house over to clean mine.
