Growling

[yasmincittaa]

My cat who will be a year in a week started shedding very badly a couple months ago and I bought a brush because I heard brushing fur would help the shedding but everytime I brush her fur she growls and something hisses at me or who ever is brushing her and I'm starting to get worried the brush hurts her? Any advice

What kind of a brush are you using? How often do you brush her? Certain brushes pull the undercoat, which is fine sometimes, but not all of the time.

This is the brush I've been using

Probably, she's just not used to it yet. I'd suggest keeping brushing sessions short and trying to make sure to reward her with treats or something after each brushing.
