Tubby you look marvelous. I also have a shedding blade and it's also worked wonders on my boys. When I used it on Storm, I got a huge pile of fur. He also has dry flaky skin too. I could have brushed him all day and picked up more fur but I gave up. I also pick up a lot of fur with Sky but he's a wiggle worm and it gets him overstimulated so he starts biting. Sunny seems to really enjoy it and so does Cirrus. On a scale from 1-10, I'd give it a 10.
