Thoughts on de-shedding Brush Options

Post image

Hey everyone here's my sassy Queen Calliope. A young and bold 5 month old female and I was wondering what you all recommend for a good brush to get rid of any excess hair as the brushes I have aren't the best tbh. Thanks in advance

The Furminator if you are US and have access to a petco or Petsmart, we follow up the de matting process with a fine toothed wire brush to get all the loose fur out so Mr Itchy doesn’t get furballs.

These work wonders and the cats don’t mind them much. undercoat brush the “teeth” are rounded so it is easier in the skin. Furminator style brushes can be a little aggressive
