Not sure where I heard of this, but have used this method for the last 30 years.
When lily pollen ends up on your blouse or shirt, walk gently to the house, turn on your vacuum cleaner, and hold the round tube part (without any accessory) directly over the pollen. It sucks the pollen directly off of your clothing fibres. DO NOT TOUCH OR BLOW OR RUB AT IT, BEFOREHAND. This would rub it into your cloth fibres, and result in a stain.
Vacuuming it off cleanly, is the best technique I've found.
For depollenizing Lilies in a bouquet, I take a soft tissue, envelope all the pollen anthers from the center of one Lily blossom and pull. They usually all come off together. Carefully discard tissue, which is now contaminated, and use a fresh tissue for the next bloom. And don't do this over a tablecloth - accidents can happen!
As for taking it off of a pussycat - approaching with a vacuum tube might result in scratches and blood. Maybe a tissue is best in this case.
