Holy cat hair, Batman!

The Furminator I ordered arrived in the mail yesterday. Thank you, Amazon.ca. for being super-speedy!

Like so many other people, I've been skeptical that this really would make a significant difference, but holy cat hair, Batman, I sure had to eat my words last night. (I might have eaten some fur too, with all that was flying around.)

Both boys like to be combed/brushed and I do it frequently and thought I was getting a lot of hair out. But wow, with just a few strokes of the Furmniator I got more hair out of both of them, more easily, than with any previous combing and brushing.

I made sure to be very gentle and give them lots of praise, because it's not like the massage brush they love so much or even the fine-tooth plastic human comb they're used to. I can see why it's suggested that pets be "Furminated" only once or twice a week, not daily, high shedding season excepted.

Bottom line: It was worth the purchase price, and if you don't already have one (and your cats/dogs tolerate or like being brushed), I highly recommend it. I'm lucky that both boys are short-haired, so had to order only that one, not the long-haired one too!

I'm looking forward to giving it a go again...before I run the vacuum.  :-)

Peace.
