We just received this and our cats love it! They usually only let us brush them with a regular brush for a very short time, so we were skeptical about this product. When we tried it on them they stayed in one spot and let us give them a great brushing. And the amount of hair it brushed away was amazing! I would recommend this product!

I know you're thinking that this product is a little expensive and it is. But it's worth it. I've used this on two cats and also a dog. The amount of fur that it removes is amazing. I no longer have to de-fur my black pants, sofa, etc. This removes all that undercoat that mats on dogs and my cats only hack up a fur ball every now and then. One cat loves to be combed and the other tolerates it but then she barely tolerates anyone. Mister Dog looks and feels so soft and silky when he's been combed. Unless you have a really big dog, this size furminator will work fine for both small and medium dogs. I'll never use anything else again.

The FURminator lived up to its claim as the best deshedding tool for a cat. It does not look all that different from other combs and brushes but it works much better. We noticed a difference immediately after using it the first time. Our cat's coat looks healthier, there is less loose fur and it has eliminated her dandruff. I highly recommend this product.

I have two Snowshoe cats. One, who is not so particular, also has a thicker undercoat. I've found that I have to comb with this tool to bring up the hairs from underneath. She loves this comb more than anything and it's become a time of attention for her. I do have to do it on a floor rather than a carpet to reduce static as I comb. She rolls over belly up where I also comb very gently. Her brother is more particular but he is at least a little less annoyed by this tool and will even belly up on occasion.
I think it has reduced the hairballs somewhat but they still get them.

The furminator is everything the reviews said it would be! My only critisism is that it is too heavy, and freaks my cats out sometimes. Lightweight would probably be easier on them.
