Zoom Groom brush
These are excellent brushes. I send one home with rabbits who are adopted from
me. The cats love them too, and Dean keeps one on the end table to brush the cats. Angela (Aol.com doesn't hop!)

From: (Rene)
My only negative comment is that the hair didn't always collect in the brush but would fly around a bit. However, the Catnip review had mentioned this, so I brushed one cat outside and the other in a closed spare room, vacuuming afterwards. What I do is brush my cats first with a rubber brush that loosens up the fur and gathers it, then I take a slicker type brush to pick up all the loose fur. ________ See my cats: http://community.webshots.com/album/56955940rWhxAe Raw Diet Info: http://www.holisticat.com/drjletter.html http://www.geocities.com/rawfeeders/ForCatsOnly.html Declawing Info: http://www.wholecat.com/articles/claws.htm |

This isn't the only traditional dog grooming tool that can work well for
cats. One of my cats use to get little matts because she wasn't able to groom so well anymore. A dog undercoat rake worked wonders, used very gently of course. J. "Rene" wrote in message om... Normally, I don't post messages like this, but I thought I'd share this in case anyone is interested. . . My cats don't like to be brushed, but they have been shedding so much lately and getting hairballs that I had to do something. I read an article in Catnip (put out by Tufts) about grooming tools and they said good things about the "Zoom Groom" brush. It's a completely rubber "brush" that more or less massages the cat and the rubber grabs the hair. I bought one yesterday, and it works great! It really got the hair out! Tucker didn't mind it at all, and Benny, though squirmey, purred! My only negative comment is that the hair didn't always collect in the brush but would fly around a bit. However, the Catnip review had mentioned this, so I brushed one cat outside and the other in a closed spare room, vacuuming afterwards. I don't work for the company or anything--just a customer. Definately worth a try if your cats don't like a regular metal brush. Rene |
