l agree. l already had a slicker brush that does a good job. The only thing l didn't like about it is that it generates a lot of static - more than the furminator, in our case. Maybe because although Rhys is a shorthair, his outer coat is fairly long, or stands out from his body, and he has a very thick undercoat. l think the slicker gets in deeper.The furminator is good, but honestly a slicker brush pulls as much hair off of my DSH's, it just takes longer. The furminator knock off I got from walmart works wonders on Dax who is DLH. I can't remember the name of it but it is black and yellow with more curved ends than the furminator. The furminator gets used the least and I wish I wouldn't have spent so much money on it.
Also yes I could keep brushing and brushing and more fur will always come off. I still like to think it helps to brush them. lol.
Rhys does look more medium haired than my DSH kitties. I haven't noticed static with the slicker except on Dax. The slicker also doesn't pull much fur out on his long hair.l agree. l already had a slicker brush that does a good job.

No, but it does come around every year.We are going to try a grooming glove and see how we get on :lol3: it cant last forever can it .......
My Mouku (in avatar pic) likes to pull 'needles' of brush out with his teeth, he is not so much fan of actual brushing but really looks forward to steal a pin or two if I'm not enough cautious, it is bit of battle from brush with him.Yeah, it seems this year is a really bad year for shedding (and allergies).
I don't remember Ritz shedding this much, this long.
She doesn't hate being brushed, but likes the brush more than the brushing....
