I am also going to say how well the furminator works for me. My cat sheds like it is his full time job. When he rubs my legs he leaves behind a cat's worth of fur. I just moved in with my boyfriend and the only thing that he asked was if I could get the cat groomed. I bought the furminator and we are both ecstatic because you would never even know that we have a cat. I only use it once a week now and I tell you, there is never fur on the sofa or on my pant legs. I also have the spray shampoo and conditioner that makes him smell fantastic. I love it!
