Hertzko Self Cleaning Slicker Brush for Dogs and Cats - Pet Hair Brush for Shedding Long and Short Hair - Easy Clean Retractable Bristles - Cat and Dog Grooming Tool - Purple

So my family has 4 cats, 2 of them long haired. The boy cat, Shadow, and my dad have been thick as thieves. My dad uses a cart as a walker and Shadow will ride it around with dad, watch TV with him, snuggle with him, etc. He was the son my dad never had. Shadow has always treated me like a booty call. In the day time in front of others? Couldn't care less about me. But 3am when he wants snuggles? Slides into my room like, "Hey you up?" just to get some pets and then leave me again. Typical boy. Only problem was Shadow's fur was getting matted. Dad insisted he had the best brush on the market, but the mats spoke for themselves. He tried other methods but Shadow wasn't a fan of those either. We tried a lion cut but he looked so sad afterwards that I will never do that to my baby again. So I did a little Google research and, after seeing some reviews, I tried this one. It's cheap, looked easy to clean, so why not give it a shot? It's been less than a week and already Shadow has forsaken dad for me. Just the first time I tried it he was a big, black fluffball purring happily away. In just a few days I've gone from side chick for snuggles to having him simp. Honestly embarrassing for him. Now any time he feels like he needs a brushing he comes up to me and meows until I give into his demands. Or comes over and puts his head in my hands. Then he just purrs and purrs as I brush him. If I stop, he insists I keep going with aggravated meows. He wants nothing to do with dad now; only brushing. Morning, middle of the day, middle of the night... time is irrelevant to him. He even gets mad if the other cats come around or dare to use HIS brush, even though they love it just as much. All my cats turn into puddles of purrs after just a few brushes. All of their coats are looking shiny and fabulous, though the increase of them catching paws with each other to get brush time has been a bit much. Other than that, I'm happy because the brush is so simple to use and easy to hold onto. Cleaning this brush of fur and dandruff is so much easier to do than normal brushes. My dad has used ones specifically for mats but I've had better success with this one thus far. It makes my short hair cats happy. It can tackle mats on my long hair cats. The cats are obsessed with this brush to the point of abandoning their bonded humans. Only real downside thus far is that I'm going to need to get another one for my dad so his feline son returns to him. So if you want to take good care of your cats coat and can handle them fighting over you, then this brush is great. 5 paws out of 5.

I ordered this product on a whim - I wanted to buy a brush for my dog, after all, and I have very little experience with buying brushes for dogs. In this case, I ordered this brush due to the reviews after comparing a bunch and running URLs through fake review spotters. My primary purpose for ordering this brush was to de-clump or de-mat my dog's fur; I have a Siberian Husky and while he sheds like no tomorrow, his fur also occasionally clumps up into little pieces and I find them annoying - I'm sure he does, too, because those mats/clumps can (as I've read) lead to itchiness of the skin. My Husky ended up loving the brush and the attention. On a fairly unrelated note, he hates the furminator for reasons unknown - it's really down to the dog and how you use the tool, and it just so happens that my dog likes this brush and this tool is easy to use. In regard to the brush, it is easy to use and has a firm rubbery-like grip. The brush has a button on its handle that you press down on to unleash the wiry spikes, and upon letting go (you have to hold it) it retracts the wires and leaves the fur. Furthermore, It is easy to remove the fur as you just have to grab it - it's only loosely attached. Beware of pricking yourself, however, but I say that and I have yet to break skin and draw blood. Overall, I have to say, this brush is very good for de-clumping bits of fur that may or may not be large - I'd say it's very good in a general sense, too, because it leaves the coat feeling smooth and thoroughly brushed through as there are a large number of spikes/wires. I am very pleased after buying this brush, and I'm sure my Husky is too - I have a feeling he feels like he's being pampered when he's being brushed.

This product works well, used it for 2 years for my cat. Can easily remove the fur from my cat and the feature to remove fur from the brush itself is cool.

A good little cleaning/brushing brush for your long haired cat. No pulling, no snagging. Gets the loose hair and cleans with the click of the top button.

I brushed off enough cat hair to have another cat. I would recommend this brush if you want to brush your fur babies bald. It won't actually ever happen, them being bald, but it is so satisfying to see that fur pile up next you as you spend 30 minutes brushing your cat or dog. I'm starting to think Porkins doesn't even have any skin, she must be made entirely of fur as it NEVER ENDS. She's completely passed out now from all the brushing, she loved it. The push button to retract the bristles is fantastic and makes for easy clean up! Totally worth every penny, and I'm sure Porkins would agree as well, if she understood the basic concept of monetary values. UPDATE // 3 years have passed since I've purchased and reviewed this product. I used it extensively the brush has now come across an issue. I can't say its the brush itself that is at fault, maybe it's the constant push of the button to clear the fur that just couldn't keep up with me, but the push button has now evolved into the strongest thumb workout ever. The resistance the button gives added a new feature to this brush that not only requires what I would measure as the strength of ten teenagers combined (9 of which are looking at their phones while the remaining one sadly their phone has died) has now forced me to realise my own weakness by testing my thumb strength. Some days I have to use BOTH of my thumbs to push down (quitters never win and winners never quit) until I feel that satisfying click as it locks into place. Other days my thumbs are so fatigued I can not bother to retract the bristles and opt for the age old method of cleaning the bristles manually (but those who never win AND never quit are filled with disappointment). 3 years and I still use this brush despite the easy fur removal hindered, possibly obsolete. I'd still recommend this brush as it reaches the undercoat of your fur overlords when they demand their daily brushing therapy.

I absolutely love the Hertzko Self-Cleaning Slicker Brush! It’s hands-down one of the easiest pet grooming tools I’ve ever used. The retractable bristles make cleaning out hair a breeze—no more picking through stuck fur or making a mess. It works beautifully on both my long-haired and short-haired pets, gently removing loose hair and tangles without scratching or irritating their skin. I’ve noticed far less shedding around the house since using it regularly. The ergonomic handle is comfortable for extended grooming sessions, and the purple color is adorable. This brush is perfect for dogs and cats alike, whether you’re a pet owner managing shedding or a professional groomer. If you want an effective, easy-to-clean, and gentle pet brush, this is it. My pets actually enjoy grooming time now—highly recommend!

Good value for the price especially if your animal has medium length hair or longer. The tines are longer than other more expensive brushes I feel. Must use gently if your animal has short hair so not to irritate their skin. Cleaning button seems a bit clunky and not sure it will go the distance.... so far so good and does the job on my dog's short coat which is beginning to shed as we get closer to summer.

This works great on my Labs! They have short hair but shed a lot. This is gentle on their skin and removes the excess hair along with a little of the undercoat. A click and it's clean. I have a Kong Zoom Groom, an undercoat rake, and a few other brushy-type things, but this is the easiest, cleanest, and my dogs' favorite.

J’ai testé pas mal de brosses pour chats, mais celle-ci sort clairement du lot. Mon chat n’est pas toujours très coopératif quand il s'agit de toilettage, mais avec la Hertzko, ça passe beaucoup mieux. Les picots sont suffisamment souple pour ne pas irriter la peau, tout en attrapant bien les poils morts. Le gros plus, c’est le système autonettoyant. On appuie sur le bouton, la plaque se rétracte, et les poils s’enlèvent d’un coup, sans avoir à galérer à les retirer à la main. Vraiment pratique au quotidien, surtout quand on brosse souvent. Bonne prise en main, facile à nettoyer, et solide dans le temps. Un excellent accessoire pour entretenir le pelage de son chat sans prise de tête.

excelente escova, a melhor que ja adquirir ate hoje, vale a pena o preço

Perfecto para los perros. Es el segundo que adquiero

I tried this slicker brush on 2 of my furbabies and they absolutely love it. The self cleaning was such an additional boost too! Highly recommended!

Wouldn't want to be without it! It was a top recommendation by Spruce Pets. I just hope that if it ever fails a new one will still be available. Lifts the hair easily. The 3 short-medium haired cats really love it. And the self-cleaning part (where you don't have to even touch the hair) is a real bonus. I supplement also with the FURminator, particularly at high shedding seasons. Highly recommend.
