Cat shedding hair.
 

Retorical Question:

Why is it that I can brush my Sam's hair for hours on end and get hardly a
hair but as soon as I hokd him to trim nail, medicate, or whatever he sheds
so much that I look like I have more cat hair on me then he does ?!?!?

Because cats can shed hair as a "defense" when stressed. If a larger
predatory animal were to grab them, and only manage to grab the fur - an
easy escape is then managed.

Also, if you saw a potential dinner that was shedding it's fur, you wouldn't
be too appetized by it, would you? I know I'm thinking in human terms, but
well, I thought it was worth mentioning ;)

That's true. My Butterscotch doesn't shed too much at home. I usually
only find hair in her favorite spots and it takes a few days between
cleanings to see that. But, when I take her to the vet for her yearly
check up, my car is COVERED in fur. I took her about a week ago for her
rabies shot update and she refused to go into her carrier so I carried her.
She clung to me and shed everywhere! I took her out of the car at the vet
and just brushed a ton of her fur off in the parking lot with just my hand.
She hates leaving because she's an indoor only cat. She was definitely
stressed and she definitely shed more because of it!

I have 2 cats and I can not wear anything black or dark blue as I will be
covered in fur. It amazes me how clean they appear when they go rolling
around on the ground outside. I have these white blanket type things that
they sleep on. The white gets very dirty quickly so takes a lot of washing
but it give you an indication of the dirt that the cats bring in the house.
Also it will show me if they have picked up fleas.
