I am looking into possibly getting one of those "de-shedding" grooming tools for my Maine Coon cat, Sam.
I have it narrowed down to the Oster Shedzilla Professional De-Shedding Tool, and the Furminator Grooming Tool. My internet searches have shown these two products to have the overall best customer reviews.
I haven't made a decision as of yet; the price of the Furminator tool is a bit offsetting to my pocketbook, and I don't want to get something that expensive if it may not work on his hair coat as well as I'd like. Even though I know of several groomers and coworkers who swear by it - but for their dogs.
Sam has a very dense undercoat. A regular grooming comb doesn't do the job well for it, and I discovered early on that he doesn't tolerate a slicker brush (which I stopped using). His fur has grown out now to at least 2 inches in length; he had been shaved by his previous owner before we got him.
Who here has had experience with these products? Thanks :-)
