Review on 2-In-1 Professional Dematting Comb And Grooming Rake For Cats And Dogs By GoPets by Brad Schillings

This is an excellent comb for removing Mats and tangles in pets, both cats and dogs of varying fur/hair thickness.I bought this primarily for a cat with medium, long fur. The cat is not a "long hair", but definitely not a short hair, either. She tends to get matting along her hind quarters, and just behind her tail. She hates to be combed and usually gets crazy if I try to clip the matts. If she would let me comb her or brush her regularly, we would not have this problems. But she makes the rules.Anyway, when I got the comb, I was glad it had two sides of varying comb numbers (as stated in the listing). This is nice because you use the lesser number of combs first, then move to the higher number. This way there is no pulling. My cat was frightened when she saw this thing, and then turned to happiness when I began to effortlessly comb her mats out. Now, her matts are not severe, however, I believe this would work on medium matting. Anything more and you will want a groomer to take care of it.The blades are very sharp, and overgrooming with this tool will thin the hair too much.I was able to use this on multiple pets with differing fur thickness, even a fine, silky cat, and not only did it remove matts, tangles and undercoat binding, but they all loved this thing.Anytime I bring this out, all the little monsters come running to me, for their turn. It's especially nice to see the one who was very afraid of combs and brushes, she is quite happy when she sees this and is ready to be groomed.I would imagine that once the blades get dull, as there is no way to replace them or sharpen them, you should get a new one. Dull blades in a comb like this would be very painful for an animal. At that point I would definitely buy a new one.Lastly, I don't think you will want to use this for every grooming. Only when there is a matting concern. As I said, it will blunt the hair, otherwise.Over all, great, and will definitely buy again when needed. Sorry for any typos I'm writing this on my mobile, which has a mind of its own.
