Spec me a cat brush?

[subbytna]

My cat is really moulting in this heat but she isn't a normal long haired cat....fairly standard shorthair but with the heat the fur is coming ocf a good bit. Would be nice to brush it off her even if it means the cat not shedding in the house for a couple of days.

What do I even look for in a cat brush lol

A handle and bristles.

Supermarket or pet store

Look in the aisle for pets
Find the brush that says "cat comb"



Looks like a nit comb if you know what they look like

Without a second thought mate, get a Furminator!

Pricey but they're worth it.
Will brush off the excess from the top coat but they also brush out from the undercoats too

My small cat has pretty short hair and I've just taken a huge amount off her today.Had one of those plastic nit type combs from the supermarket was rubbish compared to this.

Hmm how spooky the missus just received one of these today, she now has a carrier bag full of excess fur.

Yeah de-shedding combs are amazing for sorting out a cat's coat, you won't believe how much fur comes off them!! Helps control furballs as well

Furminator!

I have one of these. It's called a Moult Master.

Essentially just like a furminator but cheaper.

Have one long-haired cat and one who is short haired but has very thick fur.

Gets LOADS of hair off them. So happy with it.

I've found the double brush head type to be the best. Bristles on one side and spiky metal on the other. Somehow the spiky part is irresistible and extremely satisfying for them to tear their face off it

Furminator lol...

I'll look into that one you said Vic...cheers all

 

[Lunawolfy]

This is Poppy:



I have been a neglectful owner and haven't brushed her for about 10 days. Did her with the moult master this evening (hand and beer bottle for scale):

10 days?
Really?
Just 10 days for that mess?
Does the cat die in a tangle web of its own fur if left alone for a month?

 

[vicisthebest]

Yes, really! Not usually that bad but it has been hot! Should've done it sooner.

She is the hairiest cat in the world, I have the vacuum cleaner out all the time. When I come down in a morning I have to try and avoid her winding round my legs because my trousers will be covered in hair. She would be starting to get pretty matted if left alone for a month - we learnt our lesson there when she ended up at the stage that we couldn't get them out and she had bald legs for a while after having to have them shaved!
