Although I've had cats that have lived long lives (18 yrs. and 21 yrs.), and veterinarians have always said that they are well-cared for, I find that these days there are so many different grooming tools that I'd like advice on several topics (three questions):
First question: Which grooming tools are best to use (I have two cats: Hazel is a 12-yr. old short-hair and Cleo is an 8-yr old medium-care cat)
Different products say that they are deshedding tools, massage tools, remove top coat, remove undercoat, etc.
Currently, I have the Aumuca Cat Brush: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B098P6164W/?tag=thecatsite
The amazon.com description says it's a "cat brush" but that it's also used for deshedding. Can this one tool do both?
I also have a small, soft bristle brush, a comb, and a FURminator which is also, like the Aumuca Cat brush, called a "deshedding" tool Amazon.com
Too many tools?
Second question: in what order should I use the different grooming tools during a grooming session.
Third, and last, question: how many times a week to simply brush, and how many times a week to deshed? And can/should I do both in the same grooming session?
I will be grateful for any advice/wisdom that can be shared. Thank you all!
