For health and maintaining an attractive appearance, a cat brush is required, which must meet certain requirements. It is known that combs for combing the undercoat help not only get rid of tangles, but also clean the skin of dead particles that can cause serious diseases. After all, a pet cannot always comb itself, putting its skin in order. Combs or slickers are especially important for combing long-haired cats, however, they will not cause harm to smooth-haired cats either. After all, even short hair, if not properly cared for, can mat and form tangles.
How often should you use a cat brush for grooming?
In order not to harm the health of the animal’s coat, it is important to know how often you can use the device for combing out fur:
- during shedding, the tool is used 2-3 times a week;
- for long-haired cats, procedures should be carried out 3-5 times a week;
- Smooth coat grooming is carried out 3 times a week.
Attention! If your pet's fur is too long, you should buy a special spray at the pet store that makes combing easier. After all, not a single brush will be able to comb out tangles efficiently and quickly if they are too hard and varied in shape.
If the animal bathes too often, after water procedures it is necessary to comb it to avoid tangling of hairs. How much does such a device cost? Typically, prices for combs vary between 100-500 rubles, which depends on the number of teeth and the purpose of the tool.

In the intervals between procedures, much less hair falls off the animal. Our furniture and floors are noticeably cleaner. I even let our six-month-old daughter pet the cat.
By the way, I changed my mind about buying a real Furminator. The copy from Ali copes with the task perfectly. I recommend purchasing to anyone who has furry pets and who is bothered by shedding.
Let me note again that I bought a cat scratcher on Aliexpress. I also recommend the Cats Meow cat toy and a pineapple-shaped cat house.
