And here is one more good review. You do need to be a little gentle, compared to some other similar products, but that is just common sense. It does not reduce my overall high satisfaction. The FURminator (for cats)actually surpassed our expectations. Previous good reviews were one reason we purchased the item. All in all, a fine product. I didn't think they could have that much underfur. The price was reasonable, and about $10 cheaper from Amazon, plus we got free shipping.
I never knew this much hair could come off of my cats. great product.
Please don't think you can entirely strip your pet of any and all undercoat - that isn't possible and that would be kind of painful for the pet. Just don't overstroke/overcomb your pets with this (you could give them brush burns/sore areas, etc). I have three cats and one of them loves this comb. It works great. It does help a lot on the shedding around the house. I comb them a bit at a time, twice a day for now, just to reduce the shedding on the microfiber sofa. Comes with a plastic protector for the teeth (the teeth are not guaranteed against breaking as stated on the instruction sheet). I did try to catch all the fur as I was combing the first time I used it but it really is easier just to comb the cats (no dogs here, sorry) on the rug and vacuum later.
Make sure your pets don't have sores and this thing does the job. Just wanted to join in the feedback about this de-shedding tool. Yes, it's overpriced, just like most pet products, but this should last several years. The other could take it or leave it and the other thinks it's evil. The tool definitely has a bit of heft.
Also, it may be a good idea to wear glasses or something else to keep the fur out of your eyes since small bits of it will invariably float up around you. This comb rakes out the undercoat and generally makes your cats shed less, and works pretty much exactly as advertised. In a word of advice, make sure to either use the FURminator outside or when you're going to vacuum anyway since it produces a lot of hair, and if it's not cleaned up quickly, cats can become interested in it, which leads to hairballs. I've noticed that it's most efficient when used after my cats have dried out from a bath.Despite what other reviews may indicate, if your cat doesn't like being groomed with other brushes, they're probably not going to like being groomed with this one. But if you can deal with the minor annoyances, you'll be much better off for using this.
I bought this for my two cats; one is long haird the other short haired. You would be amazed at how much dead undercoat hair comes off of even a well groomed animal. It works like a charm. My long haired cat is prone to tangles, the furminator should eliminate the problem at the source.
