I have a short-haired cat who sheds fur constantly. He can be combed, but only for about 2 minutes before the claws come out! I thought this was worth a try to help him with fur balls, and my carpets.
Tried it straight away. He seemed happy to have it used on his coat, and it certainly got quite a lot of loose fur out. I will aim to use it on a daily basis.
One further comment, the mit is quite large so for any men folk with cats, it should fit your hands easily. It dose have a velcro wrist adjustment which is handy.
