How to Choose a Cat Grooming Brush: Options That Work for All Cats

19.02.2023 11:58

As you know, the type of brush for combing fur directly depends on the length and thickness of the cat's fur coat.

At the same time, there are universal accessories that are suitable for both long-haired and short-haired breeds.

If we are talking about kittens that are not yet accustomed to a brush, or about the first stage of brushing the fur of an adult animal, a rubber brush in the form of a mitten will come in handy.

This tool is able to collect hairs that have fallen out of the "fur coat" absolutely painlessly. In addition, the soothing stroking movements will not allow your pet to experience stress.

However, the mitten also has a downside - it is not able to untangle hairs, so the main work should be done with an iron double-sided comb.

Please note: the teeth should be long enough to comb through the hair right down to the skin.

The side with rare teeth is used to comb out tangled areas, while the side with frequent teeth is used to check the quality of combing.

Finally, the final stage is carried out using a massage brush. Thanks to the "massage", you will be able to collect hairs and stimulate the blood flow to the hair follicles, as a result of which the process of hair renewal will begin.
