Default Washing machine lint filters

I just got a new top load washing machine. My old one had a lint trap

tell me that washing machines have not had lint traps for at least ten
years. I am concerned because I have cats and the lint trap on my old
machine used to collect lots of cat hair. Where will all this hair go
now?

Well, not entirely true. I have a new front loader that traps lint/hair
in the door gasket area. It's actually made to do that. But, I
congratulate you on buying a washer that actually puts the cloths in
water and gets them clean. If I didn't have other wants, needs, etc.
I'd dump this thing in a heartbeat.
