We had a zoom groom as well and it worked pretty good until it started to crumble and fall apart after a few months. It got the fur out but it just deteriorated after awhile. I think it’s because it’s rubber and just not very sturdy. We did search for something similar and found the Bailey Brush which is higher quality silicone and lasts a long time and works great, so we highly recommend that one for anyone looking for a better quality brush. The slicker brush at number 3 is also a must-have for sure, but I think the ones that are coated tipped are the best since it protects their sensitive skin. Hope it’s okay to mention that other brush that’s not on your list, you should definitely try it out and add it because people would really like it.

In reply to marissa. Have you tried the Bailey Brush? We use it and it’s wonderful for our cat who is picky and has sensitive skin.

Hey Mallory, what do you think about those “steam brushes”?

In reply to marissa. Hey Marissa, it's wonderful that you're caring for your arthritic cat's coat. I would think that a brush glove would be the gentlest option for an arthritic kitty. Are you also using any supplements? I've heard good things about omega-3 supplements for inflammation relief—a good fish oil could help your cat in terms of both joint and coat health.

Hi, my cat has pretty severe arthritis and when we try to brush him, it hurts him quite a lot. we have tried a couple of bushes but nothing seems to help and he is shedding a lot and also starting to get matted. could i please have some help with something that you would recommend for arthritic cats? Thank you.

I really like SleekEZ. It’s really effective at removing the undercoat and yet super gentle. My med-long hair love bug didn’t do well with the furminator (seemed too uncomfortable) or and the boars hair brush didn’t seem to be too effective. He purrs and looks like he’s ready to sleep when I use this on him, but there are piles of fur that come off him. And he looks so clean and well groomed after I use it. I guess lots of folks use the bigger versions on horses and dogs.

I have tried them all. The new one that I am using now is called Leo’s Paw. They are awesome and do the job very well. Not hard to use if you ha e arthritis, those that you have to push down are not good, I gave mine away. We love ❤️ Leo’s paws.

I have variations of brushes for my tuxedo , (not short.,not long hair either, hair. A large oval shaped hair brush of mine seems to be her fav, Plastic brush with rubber tips that are on a cushioned like center. Use it softly in various directions that gives a massage to her body and hair, and causes her ‘motor ‘to start, also causes a roll over to get her tummy as well!! Under the chin and around whiskers and ears are welcomed too. She leans back her head for that. She is about 15 years and runs over when ever I pick up the brush. Also, not every day….wash her face and eyes with a warm cloth and wipe the dust off her head from the sand box.

In reply to Meg Ferra. Hi Meg, your kitties may feel comfortable with Furminator's shedding control cloths, which allow you to stroke your cat with a soft cloth and remove loose hair.
