I bought The Furminator in hopes of reducing one of my cats furballs (supposedly one of its benefits). He is a short-haired cat but seems prone to cough up a furball every 2-3 weeks.

He absolutely loves being brushed with it and I get a lot of fur off of him but I can't honestly say that I have seen any noticeable reduction in his furballs. However, I must admit that I didn't treat this as a scientific study and track the # of furballs before and after - so I may be seeing improvement but am not aware of it.

Regardless, this thing gets a lot more fur off of him than my previous brush and he loves it so I think it was a good purchase for me. My other cat enjoys being brushed with it too and it makes their coats so soft!

Also, I have two friends who have dogs who absolutely swear by it, so if you are having a shedding problem it is definitely recommended.
