The Long Hair deShedding Tool for Large Cats is specially designed for cats that are over 10 pounds with hair that is longer than 2 inches. The 2.65 -inch long hair stainless steel edge reaches deep beneath your cat's long topcoat to safely remove undercoat and loose hair, The FURejector button cleans and removes loose hair from the tool with ease.

Please read all instructions carefully before you use the FURminator(R)

1. For best results, we recommend deShedding your pet immediately after washing and drying. Use only on a completely dry coat. Our extensive line of FURminator deShedding products are designed to promote healthy skin and coat and reduce excess shedding.

2. Before using the deShedding tool, perform a complete physical inspection of your pet. Remove tangles or mats with a FURminator Slicker Brush or Finishing Comb before using the deShedding tool. Look for sores, bruises and skin conditions, which may be concealed by his coat. If your pet has any of these conditions, seek treatment from a veterinarian before brushing.

3. Use the deShedding tool much like a brush and gently stroke across the pet’s coat in the direction of hair growth, angling the stainless steel teeth of the deShedding edge toward the coat. Start from the head and work your way back, using extra care near the pet’s stomach, legs, genitals and anus. Avoid making excessive strokes in a single area, instead using long, gentle strokes up and away from your pet’s skin. Deep or rough brushing can cause your pet’s skin to become red and irritated, so do not apply too much weight or downward pressure. If you notice any redness or irritation, discontinue use.

4. Remove excess hair from the teeth of the deShedding tool as you work by pushing the FURejector button.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can the deShedding tool be used on all pets?

The deShedding tool may be used on most long- and short-haired pets, including dogs, cats, horses, rabbits, ferrets and other small pets. The edge is designed to make grooming pets faster and easier. The deShedding tool should not be used on non-shedding breeds or on pets with particularly sensitive skin.

How often and how long should I use the FURminator deShedding Tool?

We recommend using the FURminator deShedding tool 1-2 times a week for 10 to 20 minutes each session, though the actual time will vary depending on the breed of your pet and the condition of his coat. You may need to use the deShedding tool more frequently during heavy shedding seasons.

Where should I perform the grooming process?

The deShedding tool will remove a high volume of loose hair and undercoat, so for convenient cleanup, choose a location that is easy to vacuum or sweep, such as a tile floor indoors or outside. Or, use the FURminator vacuum accessory for easy clean up for use with the small, medium and large FURminator deShedding Tools. Always choose a location where your pet is comfortable and safe.

How do I take care of my deShedding tool?

  • Be sure to keep the protective edge cover on the deShedding tool when it’s not in use.
  • Take care not to drop the tool, as doing so may break the teeth, especially if the protective cover is not on the edge.
  • Brush your pet before using the deShedding tool to remove any mats or tangles. Using the tool on matted or tangled fur can bend or break the teeth.
  • You can clean the deShedding edge with warm water. A mild soap may be used if necessary. This can reduce the feeling of a dull edge due to dander collection in the teeth of the deShedding edge. Make sure to dry the deShedding edge completely before storing the tool with its protective cover.

Worth every penny!
5 Stars
Worth every penny!
I first saw the FURminator at my local petco and I scoffed at the price and thought to myself "anyone who buys a cat brush that expensive must be crazy". Well I guess I am crazy.I have two cats. One is 5 years old and grooms himself regularly the other is 14 and rarely grooms himself. They both got fleas recently and as I was running the flea comb through my older cat's fur I noticed that even with regular brushing he had several large mats of fur that I couldn't get the comb through. It made the whole process of combating the flea situation even harder. I knew immediately I needed to get a brush that could easily get the mats out of his fur. I did my research and everything led me to the FURminator. I wasn't thrilled since I found spending so much on a brush to be ridiculous but I needed something, so I purchased it. And boy am I glad I did.I have never been so happy with a pet brush than I am with this one. It got the mats out of my older cat's fur quickly, easily and what seemed to be pain free. My older cat who hates being brushed didn't complain once, he actually seemed to enjoy it and was purring away as I gently went over his coat with the FURminator. Surprisingly though my younger cat who loves being brushed and will happily run over when he sees the brush is in your hand, hated this thing. And he will have to continue hating it because the FURminator is here to stay.I only brushed each cat for 5 minutes since I wasn't sure how they would react but in the 5 minutes I went over their bodies I removed some size clump from each of them. The picture included is the clump that came off of just my older cat. If I continued brushing for the recommended 10-20 minutes I would imagine the clump would be huge!The furjector button doesn't release the fur completely by just pressing it alone, give it a little shake and it will fall right off. If you are going to be brushing your cat while it rests on you (such as sitting on your lap) cover yourself with a towel or an apron because you will get covered with A LOT of fur.I am overjoyed with my purchase and I'm really excited to see if it does help with my cats shedding. There is always fur tumbleweeds floating around my house during the heavy shedding season and it will be nice to possibly not have them any more. I will update this review as I use the FURminator on my cats to report on whether or not it helped with excess shedding and hair balls. I have only used the brush once so far so I can't give my thoughts/review on that just yet.
Thank you for your feedback
