Cat hairs probably aren't a probelm as long as they dont clog up the cooling
slats on top pf the monitor (are there any). As there are no movin parts and
hairs tend to be pretty good insulators (witness the reaction of hair to
static electricity -- all the electrons reside on the surface of the hair
because it is not a conductor), cat hair probably isn't the problem.

I would worry the most if your CAT is blocking the slats prventing airflow,
don't worry about it. In fact, the cat is probably conducting away some of
the heat (that's why he/she likes it there!).
