FURminator Adjustable Dematting,gray,Standard

My cat hates getting brushed. She just runs away. This resulted in her acquiring some matts in her fur. She is not long haired, but her fur is extremely thick. I bought this as a last ditch attempt to address the matts before they got totally out of hand. I thought I was going to have to go down the costly and stressful route of either getting her sedated at the vet or paying a professional groomer. However, the Furminator came to the rescue!It's quite heavy to hold, but in a good way. The weight allows you to follow through with the strokes without putting any weight on to your pet. Initially I managed to stroke my cat a good few times and she was ok with it. She started to tolerate it, which allowed me to get rid of the matts very thoroughly and quickly.I can now use it (although not too often, lol) to keep things in check. She needs to sniff it first thoroughly and still doesn't like it that much. She growls at it and turns to swipe it if I use it for too long, but at least I am to get a few regular strokes in on a regular basis, so it works for us.

So wmy cat has short but thick furShe's been a bit stressed staying at my mums lately due to a house move and we noticed some matted parts of her fur lots of dandruff and her coat was generally in a terrible state (don't judge me)Got the de matting tool and the de shedding tools and my back up plan was a trip to the vetMy cat does like to be stroked and brushed thankfully but I was expecting this to be a slow process over daysHonestly using both tools gently and 20 min later she's like a new woman! Coat looks stunning - still some dandruff! A bag full of old hair and mats and I couldn't be happier! She even looks perkier and more herself!Delighted over here and will be using the shedding tool once a week or every other week to keep on top of it. Good to have the de matting tool on standby just incase!

My elderly cat’s fur began to get more and more matted despite regular brushing, so I bought the dematter. It isn’t an instant solution, but she really likes it, and with regular use I have cleared 95% of the clumpy bits in her coat. Every morning she hangs around next to the cupboard where the furminator is kept, meowing until I brush her.

Arrived today and used on my cockapoo this evening. She is not a fan of the brush but she was brilliant while I used this on her. As you can see from the photo it has done a brilliant job.

This drags and pulls the hair rather than cutting the clumps out of our rescue foster dog. Sadly not fit for purpose, expensive and causes pain.

Saves a lot of hovering up.

I was expecting great things as a friend had recommended. I usually cut little matts out of my babies fur but a friend said this would be better. It doesn’t cut through the matts ut just drags them and I imagine it is very uncomfortable, I would not recommend and probably won’t use again
