Q&A: Has anyone bought a furminator for their cat?

Question by yourmtgbanker: Has anyone bought a furminator for their cat?
I have read that this product is supposed to greatly reduce shedding in long haired cats? I would like to know if the people that bought them has seen a decrease in shedding and would you recommend the product?
I am talking about the cat furminator that is actually specifically made for cats.

Best answer:

Answer by angpharo16
Brushing with any type of brush should decrease shedding. I have a furminator I got for my dogs, but it works pretty well on the cats too. I suppose it would work really well if I kept up on it. If you are going to brush the cat regularly, and kind find it cheaper then go for it. If you are only going to use it occasionally then don’t waste your money.

What do you think? Answer below!
