As creators of the FURminator deShedding Tool, FURminator
continues to raise the bar with innovative, proprietary shedding
solutions. The FURminator lineup of deShedding tools, grooming
tools, hair care products, bathing and hygiene solutions broadens
and enhances the FURminator deShedding experience for pet parents
and their pets. Simply put, there is no pet care solution on the
market like the FURminator product line. The FURminator
deShedding Tool for Cats features a long hair stainless steel
deShedding edge to reach through topcoat and safely remove loose
hair and undercoat without damaging the coat or cutting the skin.
The FURejector button releases hair with ease, making deShedding
easier than ever! You will love the ergonomic handle for comfort
and ease of use as you deShed your cat. Up to 2/3 of the hair a
cat sheds is ingested during self-grooming, resulting in
hairballs that are messy, stressful to the cat and cause
potentially serious problems. You can help by reducing the excess
hair that can be the culprit of these hairball problems.

Usage Instructions
------------------
Please read all instructions and FAQs carefully before you
begin. Use the FURminator deShedding Tool only as directed.
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.
Precision Tool Selection

Not all cats were created equal which makes FURminator the best

tool that matches your cat's body size then select either the
short hair or long hair edge for a truly customized grooming
experience. Matching each cat to the ideal tool significantly
enhances deShedding results.
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.
