Coastal Pet Safari Cat Shedding Comb Deshedding, One Size

Wasn't sure of my expectations, but this is a really good comb. We have a long-haired cat, and it really does the job. I highly recommend it! It works just as well for short haired cats. It's the best comb we own now, and the cats are good with it too.

I recommend for Main Coons. Easy to use and to remove hair from the device.

I've had cats most of my life but when a fuzzy orange kitten wandered into our life and turned into a beautiful, long-haired ball of floof, I didn't know exactly what to do with her coat! I've never had a long-haired kitty before. I had a couple other brushes on hand for my two short-haired cats, but neither really seemed to work well for her long, silky coat. (One was just a bristle brush and didn't remove anything; the other was a round head brush that got *some* fur but mainly just annoyed her.) I googled "best brush for long haired cats" and this comb came up. It does a really good job getting in the various layers of my long haired cat. Removed a nice amount of hair but not too much the way something like a Furminator can do. I like the dual layer size of the comb's teeth and the fur stays nicely in place against the edge so you can easily remove it in one clump instead of it just flying everywhere. The long-haired cat is still young (10 months) and not a huge fan of the combing process. She tries to squirm and bite it. But I got a lot better results faster with this versus other brushes I've tried. And I think quick is probably best given her lack of patience. I did try it out on my short hair cat and it worked nicely on her too. In fact, she really loved it and purred and was rubbing to get more combing. Of course the amount of fur coming off her wasn't as much as the long haired but she has much less to start with. So I can see this being useful for both long and short hair though probably better for long. Overall, I'm very pleased!

I've been owned by two beautiful long-haired cats in twenty years, one a Chinchilla (i.e., the Fancy Feast cat's breed) & the other a purebred Maine Coon. Both cats required extensive combing, so I know my cat combs (I've owned five or six in my lifetime, and I have to say, I think this is overall the best). My first cat had to be combed daily, and had very fine but plentiful fur. He was a former show cat, before I bought him, so he was used to combing. My Maine Coon & current pet, on the other hand, has a silky but dense three-layer coat which sheds heavily in the springtime. She loves brushing, but hates combing. However, it has to be done once a week, or she'll get hairballs, and with my beige non-Stainmaster carpet, that's definitely no fun. Her undercoat alone is off the charts. She is thirty pounds & has more fur on her tail than some kinds of cats have over their whole bodies. Being so big because of the breed she is, possessing twenty sharp claws & a finely-honed set of four fangs expert at delivering a fatal bite to the jugular, my beloved cat is...ahem...a handful. I needed a lightweight but firm comb with good teeth in it. The last comb I had, previously used on my Chinchilla for years, my cat's fur literally laughed at, breaking two of the metal teeth off upon first usage. Not so with this comb- with it's long & short metal teeth intersperced closely together, it works great on dense Maine Coon furriness. My cat's fur is so long & thick that I wish all of the teeth were a little bit longer, just because the comb fills up SO fast with her fur. Because the teeth of the comb are so close together, it takes a little work to pull this baby bear's fur out of the comb each time it's full (which would be often). The comb works well, because each time I use it, I have enough excess fur each week to stuff a pillow sham with, line a pair of slippers & make a fur stole. The wooden handle is fairly ergonomic, and very well-made. The price is great for the quality- I couldn't find anything at the pet stores around here that even came close, and they were all pricey. Amazon came through again! The teeth aren't bendable, and are very well-made. I like that the comb is fairly lightweight & easy-to-grip, as my arthritic hands get tired fairly fast, and I've got to contain my furball with my own death grip as I'm combing with the other hand at all times. Be prepared to get a LOT of fur off of your pet with this serious comb.

Let me start off by saying, my cat LOVES getting brushed with this comb. I must admit that I didn't brush him before purchasing this, so he may just like getting brushed in general, but every time I bring this out he immediately starts purring. I almost don't even have to brush him becuase he rubs his whole body up against the comb himself. My cat might just be a little freak, but if your cat is anything like mine and you are worried about how he will react to this (as I was a bit, since it looks kind of poke-y with the hard metal), don't be! As for the effectiveness, this comb really does remove a ton of hair. I just "adopted" my cat in November (I found him outside on the street as a stray and brought him in) and he has been shedding like crazy since the weather changed. I am not exaggerating, it was so bad that if you rubbed your hand the length of his body you would come up with an entire hand full of hair, and you could do that 10-15 times in a row and still get the same amount of hair each time. This comb really does capture a lot of that hair. It is also super easy to pluck the hair out to throw away if it gets full before you are finished brushing. I have been using this on my cat about 2-3 times a week, and I definitely notice a difference in the amount of hair that I am finding on my furniture and clothes. My cat's coat has also never looked shinier or healthier! I would definitely recommend this product to anyone looking for an effective shedding comb that their cat will love. Five stars!

The only comb you need. I have bought just about every style brush/comb for cats on Amazon that you can buy. The Hertz Fur Fetcher and this comb is all you need. The Hertz Fur Fetcher is great for weekly use and removing undercoat fast. My cats don't hate it but they find this comb a lot less annoying. It is very effective for short and long hair cats as all the other brushes only work for short hair and honestly this comb catches more hair and leaves your cat's looking coat looking much better.

I have a little puff ball that clumps up fairly badly when her winter coat is coming in, and again when her summer coat is coming in. She also clumps up randomly between those times if her short hair sister sleeps on her and drools all over her fur too much. This brush is amazing at getting the tight clumps close to her skin even in sensitive areas and either loosening them up so I can cut them off safely or pulling them out completely. She loves being brushed with it too and I've never worried about it cutting her skin or anything like that nor has it ever done that. Some of the reviews made it sound like these are sharp and dangerous but maybe they got a defective one or maybe they're testing it on their own skin first. People need to realize a cats skin is MUCH tougher than human skin, so raking this across the underside of your arm roughly is going to leave a mark on you, but is not going to be dangerous for your cat as long as you aren't stabbing it into their skin like its some kind of shiv. I've owned 2 of these now, the first one I bought years ago but misplaced so I bought another (and found the first of course). The quality of both seems to be the same and I have 0 complaints about this new one. The new one seems just as durable as the old one and just as good at dealing with clumps

My Siberian cat has been having his first molt (this is his first spring) and his fur has been a nightmare. His fur measures as long as 7 inches in parts, and is so thick with so many layers and types of fur, including that fine downy undercoat that mats so easily. He has never been comfortable with me using any sort of brush on his legs, tummy and his lower chest, and had developed maybe 30-40 or so mats in his fur that were starting to connect to one another. After trying to use all sorts of tools and gadgets on him, I actually tried shaving those areas and failed, and cutting them out was partially successful until I sliced my poor baby. I have really struggled to find a solution and was about to take him to the vet or groomer for a full shave. This tool, however, saved the day! Over the course of a week we've managed to get through every matted section and as of today there are no mats anymore! It most definitely helps prevent new mats too. He doesn't LOVE me using it on his more sensitive areas, but also tolerates it more than he has any other tool, and is friendly though whiny about it. I super highly recommend this tool, for sure for anyone with a Siberian, but I can't imagine it wouldn't be amazing on any longer haired cat!

Love this comb so easy to use and clean

I didn't expect for this to be such good quality, but I'm greatly pleased by it. My cat loves this thing and will sit and purr like crazy while I'm using it. It works wonders. I had another de-shedding brush (also from Amazon) that he not only hated, but that did almost nothing in his coat, which isn't even that long (he's a tabby). This brush works quickly and smoothly. You still have to be careful not to brush too roughly since this is a hard comb, not a soft brush. It's a beautiful product too. The handle might seem a bit small, but any bigger and it would've been harder to maneuver around my cat's body. It collects shedding hair easily and, unlike my last comb, you don't have to stop every 3-5 strokes to pull the cat hair out from between the teeth. Overall, thoroughly pleased - highly recommend!

My ragdoll cat is very tolerant of this cat comb. Seems to work well at keeping his fur from matting. Happy I bought it.

I am a mobile cat groomer, this is the only comb that I recommend. I would be lost without it. It's often hard to find in the UK (I have ordered direct from America recently) If you have a cat that needs undercoat removing/gets knotty then this is the comb for you.

Greatest comb ever for long haired cats. Have had this comb before, and I confess I have a habit of not knowing where I lay it down sometimes so hence the purchase of a second comb. It gets rid of the thick undercoat with ease and as for hairballs, I don't have to cut them out anymore. Most of the time my cat doesn't sit still, but with this one he will tolerate combing for at least twice as long as other combs I have tried. Great product - all I can say is 'if you have a cat that doesn't like the comb, try this one on for size.'
