FURminator deShedding Tool with 1-3/4-Inch Edge for Cats

This is a MUST have for any pet owner. It is truely amazing. The amount of hair it gets off our cats is incredible. No more hairballs! No more hair covered couch cushions!!!

Ours is a short haired cat - a Burmese. She is a diva princess who enjoys wrapping me around her paw. She has an excellent mind which she displays by talking a lot and by sauntering purposely purposelessly around the house. She's a proud cat and likes to boss her staff around. For example, she sometimes gets hungry at 3 in the morning. She then chirps a little. When that doesn't work, she simply starts licking noses - our noses. And then, like a teen girl who wants the keys to the family car, she stares with wide eyes and purrs until I get up to give her a snack. Sometimes she eats it but usually it's simply a demonstration of power.

And then we got the furminator. The princess enjoys her prettiness but does not enjoy being brushed. She was surprised by the furminator because it didn't feel like a brush but, when she realized she was being groomed, she reacted as though I was intentionally humiliating her in front of all her paramours. She screeches, she spits and she writhes until she understands I am in charge. She resigns herself for a few minutes and then cranks the drama up again. What a wonderful feeling it is to have this cat demanding something of me and realizing it's not going to happen. What a wonderful feeling to know she is furious but powerless. And the feeling lasts even after the brushing is done - she slinks off to a corner to groom herself because, obviously, I've made a mess of her. But then she gets over it and hops into my wife's lap for consolation.

If you have a diva - get one of these things. It's like chicken soup for the spirit and it makes her pretty. Her coat is shiny and all the raggedness of the undercoat is gone. I am always surprised how much hair comes out but she never looks bald.

Five stars. For sure.

The comb is a very good product for my long haired cat. I was leary on spending that kind of money on a comb but after using it, I was convinced it was a good purchase. I depend heavily on product reviews and the reviews were very favorable. If you are wondering if you should spend the money, I'd say do it, you won't be disappointed.

The Furminator comb is wonderful! It works great! It removes the undercoat of the cats so they don't shed as much. Much less fur on the sofa, chairs and carpet.

Bought this a while ago and ever since my life has changed!
I was skeptic if this would even work since I just couldn't find any solution to all the cat hair around the house. No matter how much I would comb my cat with a regular brush, the house would still be full of stray hairs - on the carpets, furniture, beds and just everywhere.
I was also worried that this would be too painful to use on my cat.
The comb comes with a no-slip grip on the handle and on the end are the comb teeth which come with a plastic covering to keep them safe. First, tried this on the back of my hand to see that it doesn't hurt. Sat the cat down as if we were using the regular brush and with a single stroke lots and lots of hair came out. It was unbelievable. I saw on the Furminator website the video of the cat being brushed and was sure that there was something strange in the video since huge clumps of hair were being taken off in a single stroke but this was real!
After a through brushing there is significantly less hair around the house and as long as you do this 2-3 times a week you won't understand how you ever lived without this. A very good investment!
