I also have one and I highly recommend it too. :D Storm, Sunny, and Cirrus love it but Sky becomes very wiggly and bitey. I think I get the most fur off of Storm. I bought mine at Petco and it just happened to be on sale too. :)
I picked one up on sale last week. Both Cassy and Livvy love it. I have a thigh high trash can that sits under one of the window hammocks and I'd drop the excess fur in there. It was over half full when I quit brushing Livvy earlier this week. The extra kept coming off and coming off and I was late for work ... amazing groomer tool.
I would love to have one of these as well Johanna. If you find one around here please let me know.Quote:

Smoke - ya wanna be next?

:D :D Yep, that's exactly how it goes! The other night Tubby was so funny with his growling. After a few "you're killing me!" screams, I stopped with the brush and was just petting him with my hand. Then the growls started. I'd scratch between his shoulders - which he loves - and he'd stop for a second, sniff the breeze, look over yonder like something was going on, then start with the growling again. After awhile he basically ignored my hand, except that the growl kept up....for about 10 minutes there was just this deep rumble in his throat, and it definetely wasn't a purr! I think he thought he was doing it quietly enough that I couldn't hear it because he just kept pretending I wasn't even petting him, just looking around and stuff. But eventually he gave in and did the ol' turn the head upside down stretch thing, which usually means he's completely content. So the 10 minute growl session was all just a big show. :rolleyes: :DQuote:

Here's a pic of the turn the head upside down stretch thing in case you were wondering. Now does this look like a cat that's been growling for the last 10 minutes? :rolleyes:

I have one that I forgot about until I saw this thread. I wasn't sure where I put it, but found it and gave both cats a brushing with it. Both Felicia and Beau enjoyed it.
Taz your namesake lives here in NZ , just around the corner from me, looks exactly like you. BEAUTIFUL:)
I got one of these brushes from a local pet supply place and some Petromalt to help Terra with her hair ball issues.
She LOVES the Petromalt. After only 2 days, she comes running when she hears me open the drawer that I keep it in. She's so thorough about getting it all off my finger, that she's nearly taken the top layer of skin off too.
The blade itself is great. In just one swipe, I can get a whole lotta hair off her and she seems to enjoy it. My only complaint (which isn't really even a complaint) is that the loop is so big (or Terra so small) that only parts of it are actually on her, pullling off dead fur, when I use it. I probably should have just bought a smaller blade. Live and learn.
We just used a brush ang got a big grey pile as big as the cat himself! Anyway that probably works really well too, probably better.
I meant to search DOGS so I could find the post relating to dogs and the shedding blade...but, can't find it and can't wait to give my totally singing endorsment of this product!
I shedded Binx and was certain I would find a minature St. B by the time I was done. I got so much hair it was unbelievable, and I am certain I would have gotten more had I done it more completely. I cannot wait to get a mini shedder for the herd....what a remarkable product! This was the 3rd brush I got for Binx. It will be the only one I use. It is that good.
Meow all!! Thank you for the great idea!! I will be making the trip to petsmart this weekend!! Now if I can just get brave enough to cut their nails!! I really like that idea of paper in box idea. When I brush my Chloe she walks all over the house.She luvs to get brushed but wont set still.It's like a work out for me!!Corbyn on the other hand just falls at my feet and "flashes"me. He also luvs to get brushed.He dosn't shed as bad as Chloe.What is it with us girls and our hair???
I know this is an old thread, but we finally had a chance to go to PetSmart (nearest one is over an hour away) and we picked up a shedding blade while we were there. It works great! Two of the three cats absolutely enjoyed being groomed. It must feel nice to get rid of all of that extra hair.
