I'm frightened


Of my Furminator!!!
It arrived this morning and looks a bit scarey and heavy.
I am a bit wary to use it to be honest as it looks like it might "rip" the hair out rather than comb it out.

It does look big and heavy compared to a comb, but it really does not rip out the fur, honestly! Leia loves being groomed with it as much as she did with the regular comb!

Re: I'm frightened


Oh don't scare me i'm still waiting for mine!

I think I will try it on the dogs first then, they let you do anything to them. You could saw Maddy's ears off with a spoon and she'd just be happy for the attention!

The cats, not so much!

Re: I'm frightened


It does rather look like something more suited to grooming a horse doesn't it? but seriously it doesn't rip the fur out. Clooney loved his grooming session with it and came back for more, purring his head off

Re: I'm frightened


I thought it ripped the fur out (infact I was very worried about that). However, Fifi is sleeker than ever she's been, and her fur seems in excellent condition. Not had time to do her today, however after 2 furminating sessions I have a rather large plastic bag full of her fur .

She loves it; Balie not so - he's a creature of habit and prefers the comb (as I found to my peril . . . scratches all round ).
