Finally got a Furminator
There was a question posted to this group some time ago where someone wanted
to know about the Furminator. I finally got around to getting one, and it gets a *fantastic* amount of fur with only a few strokes. I had no idea there was still that much loose stuff on my furbabies. I found that it helps a lot to use my hands to stroke the length of the cats after using the Furminator, and lots more loose stuff came off on my hands. Be prepared to vacuum afterwards!! And be sure to get the one with the blue handle if any of you order one. The one with a yellow handle is for dogs (or *enormous* cats, I suppose). MaryL |

The purple-handled one is listed for cats on the Furminator web site, where the blue one is shown for small dogs and cats. I think it's only a matter of size, though. -- Joey DoWop Dee Remember: It is To Laugh |

A friend of mine happen to have one that she didn't care for and sent it to me. It's great! Frank *loves* to be 'Furminated', and I have *never* had a grooming tool that was so effective in removing hair. I"m not sure whether it does cut the hair, though. No matter, he has enough hair for three cats and it is perfect for him. Sherry |

Finally got a Furminator
wrote in message ... I caught her and gave her a good grooming on her cat tree and the fur was flying everywhere. Got several large clumps of hair for our compost bin, or my wife could knit us a second kitty -- mers Craig, Kathi & "Cat Five" the tabby girl Or...place a few "clumps" of fur in shrubs or trees. Birds will often use it as nesting material. I even have a gourd with holes drilled in it. I poke cat fur in the holes, and the birds extract it. I got the idea from a gourd I bought from www.duncraft.com. The holes in that gourd are bigger than my homemade version because the "original" was stuffed with sheep's wool, and kitty fur isn't that heavy. Here's a picture of the Duncraft version: http://www.duncraft.com/Wool-Nest-Bu...F-P1901C0.aspx MaryL |
