Bubba vs The Furminator - Round 1

I can't say either of us particularly enjoyed the experience
but it certainly was worth doing.

Hopefully round 2 will be a bit less of a melodrama.

Almost an entire Bubba worth of hair gone and
probably that much again yet to go when I
work up the nerve to go through the crying
and hissing and scratching act again...

I'd be afraid to go to sleep afterward with him in the house.

What's amazing is that he looks absolutely the same
after losing that much hair...

It looks as if Bubba had been saving up.

Ever since I got him a few years ago I've combed him out
every week or so. When I got him from the pound it looked
as if no one ever had brushed him at all. His belly fur
was so matted that I had to have a professional groomer
shave him.(I didn't want his first impression of me to
be that. LOL). A normal comb-out usually gets about a
softball sized ball of hair. The Furminator really gets
in there... I can tell that there are still spots that
need it. I'm gonna wait a few days though. Even though
I'm sure it doesn't actually hurt him he's such a drama
queen about it I want to give him time to forget before
round 2...

OMG, that's a heck of a lot of fur. I don't get nearly that much off
my 2 cats with the furminator. But then again they're short haired.
Your cat doesn't look to happy in that pic, lol

I'm not sure cats are smart enough to connect happenings, but
he seems to be happier without that extra fur. There's almost
that much more to go in round 2...

I bought a Furminator and I think I'm the only person I know who doesn't
like it. It only works because there's a razor embedded in the comb and it
shaves off the hair rather than combing out the dead hair (there used to be
a "Ronco" product like this for humans - it used to be advertised in
commercials for moms to give their husbands and kids haircuts at home).

As long as I brush the cats with it I'll keep getting hair out endlessly,
but then I feel a rough kind of "stubble" when I pet them. I stopped using
it thinking that eventually my cats would end up almost bald.

Sounds like Sammy when I try to brush her! 20+ pounds of angry cat is not
fun at all! ;
