Cat Steam Brush Spritz Defur Slicker Comb for Long Short Hair Kitten Grooming with Massage Comb, Gentle Pet Hair Dandruff Remover Shedding Brush for Indoor, Outdoor, Travel Use, Blue

Helps in my constant battle against FLUFF!
One of my cats has an extremely fluffy undercoat even though she’s a shorthair, and that undercoat seems to just endlessly generate (and shed) more fluff than she’s able to keep up with, grooming-wise. She also gets “dandruff”. I brush her a few times a week with a deshedding tool, and lucky for me she loves being brushed, because this is a cat who will NOT tolerate anything unless it’s 101% on her terms. Regardless, that grey fluff gets EVERYWHERE, no matter how hard I try to keep on top of brushing it out before it sheds all over the house.All of which is to say, this steam brush caught my eye as a potential additional tool in my arsenal of anti-floof devices. I was a bit worried at the word “steam”, but it turns out it’s more of a cool mist – we’re not talking about boiling water vapor here, luckily. It’s really easy to use – just charge it up and use the little bottle provided to fill the device with water. Then you just turn it on (you can choose to have a lighter or less-light amount of mist) and brush away. My cat was a bit concerned at first, because this brush is obviously not what she’s used to, but quickly decided that she’s a fan, and loves being brushed with this thing. It does a good job of grabbing the loose fur from her fluffy undercoat, and the mist helps that fur clump together a bit so it’s not all flying off the brush before I can grab it. There’s a button on the back of the brush head that pushes the removed fur upwards so that it’s easy to pull it free of the bristles.The only minor annoyance is that it’s quite easy to accidentally turn the brush off during brushing, and/or accidentally change from one setting to another, because of the placement of the button on the handle. Other than that, this is a useful little tool to have around the place, and it’s cat-approved. It also comes with a little rake-shaped comb which doubles as a rattle to distract a cat who might not be so happy about being brushed as mine is.

Steam cat brush
I got this because my cat has always hated being brushed but I am so so tired of getting a face full of loose hair every time she comes up for a cuddle. So I decided to give this brush a try. I am SO GLAD that I did! It removes all the loose hair and because the hair is damp, it will stick to the brush. There is no scratching or pulling from the brush, it removes the hair so easily! The strange thing about this brush? My cat LOVES it! I honestly couldn’t believe that she not only sat for a brushing but was actually arching her back to get the itchy spots. The only thing I would change about it is where the on button is and only because I have accidently turned it off during a brushing session more times than I care to admit. Which is the only reason I removed one of the stars for this review.

Not the best for scaredy cats
I have three cats. One loves being brushed, and the other two just tolerate it. The two tolerators are also a pair of scaredy cats. Everything is DANGER! They were highly concerned by the mist coming out of this brush and actively avoided the brush if I tried to bring it close to them. I can use the brush on them only without the mist.The cat who does love brushing and is a very brave boy needed to check out the misting before I could use it on him, but help liked it just fine. I think the mist does do a great job of keeping cat hair from going all over the place when I brush my brave boy.So the brush works as intended but is too intimidating for skittish cats!

My cats seem to like it
This works a lot better at putting out “steam” (a mist really, as it’s not hot) than another brush I tried that really just didn’t work at all. The slicker style bristles on this one work better on my shorthaired cat than on my longhaired cat. They both like the feel of the brush, but it removes more fur from my cat with shorter fur. Silicone brushes work better for my cat with longer fur. I like how easy it is to remove fur from this brush. It leaves my cats’ fur a little damp, but it eliminates static while brushing them. Both my cats also really like the extra rattle scratcher accessory.
