How do I make up with my mother in law?

It's a long long story, it started with me being upset with her for talking bad about me (namely how we keep our house) behind my back, and last we spoke back in January she sent an email saying that maybe one day we'll understand that she's right, but she doubts it, and that she thinks its best we stay out of contact for awhile.

Am I wrong in thinking it's her move? I mean, she's the one who said no contact for awhile.

It seems she wants me to say it's ok that she did what she did, rather than admitting she was entirely wrong. What really gets me is she apologized for it and then turned right around and continued to say she was right in doing it, which obviously makes her apology null and void. She doesn't seem to understand that either.

I want to get it resolved for the sake of our family, because we've been avoiding family get togethers with everyone else because of her.

I mean what can we really do, we need a non-biased mediator of some sort it seems at this point.
But that's not really plausible, any suggestions?
The specifics were that we have a Persian cat who sheds like crazy, we swept the floor about 4 days before I went into labor with my first son. His mom went to our house to let our dog out to pee, and saw cat hair on the floor. And told people I don't sweep my floors and I'm going to let my son choke on cat hair.
Apparently I'm getting answers from mother in laws just like mine. Next time I won't leave the details out of my original question so that jerks like you can assume.
