The Furminator!!! It Really Works!!!

I've heard those aren't good because they can rip out the hair, but correct me if I'm wrong

That's amazing, though. I would get one but they are pretty expensive, and I'm happy with their shedding rake hehe

The directions say not to use this on nonshedding breeds and to make sure that the animal doesn't have any skin conditions because this would irritate the skin. They also recommend that you use it after bathing your pet and you must only use it on dry fur. If they have mats then don't use it on these because it could pull and hurt your pet.

I didn't bathe my cats and it worked very well on both my long haired and short haired cats.

I have a Furminator too!
Grandma is the queen of shedders and it works great on her. Chester and Luke enjoy it too. I can almost make a new cat from all the hair it gets out.

Leonardo, I don't use it on because he has such long hair that mats. I just use a regular brush on him.

Mollie Rose is my all-time shedder. I wonder if it'd work on her??

I Will Have To See If Petcetera Has One,as Moose, Juke Joint Joseph And Several Other Cats Do Need Grooming All The Time.
Thank You For The Idea.

I need to bump up this thread.
I've have been reading about the Furminator for years both on the net in here. I struggled with the cost and kept using the comb for Max and Speckles.

Now that I have Merlin, my place looks like a fur factory. It's really bad so I sucked it up, stopped by my local store on the way home from work last night and laid down $45 for a furminator.

I drove home in buyer's remorse. What have I done? Oh heck, if I can spend $60 on a cat bed, I can certainly justify this amount.

OMdoG - I cannot begin to express my love of this product. 10 strokes produced enough hair to form into a baseball. Merlin wasn't too impressed as he doesn't like being brushed but honestly this thing is amazing.

If you don't have one - save up and buy one. I'll never do without one now.

I wish I had known you wanted one. I've got an extra one b/c it came w/a purchase. They certainly aren't that expensive here. I think I paid something like $14.95 for mine. Grooming Specs has become so much easier w/the Furminator. He sheds and you can see fur flying as he walks through a room. It's been a godsend for me.
