Cat Zoom Groom

My cat is a moggy that I adopted as a kitten a year and a half ago. Last spring and summer she was shedding a lot, and although I tried using a flea comb (as recommended by the vet) to thin out her fur a bit there was still cat hair EVERYWHERE. Daily brushing/combing didn't seem to significantly cut down on the amount of cat hair on my clothes, furniture, bedding, up my nose - literally everywhere. This year she's fully grown and started shedding already in March. Despite returning to daily combing, she got her first hairball a week ago and I knew something had to be done. After a bit of research I realised that she's likely a good part British Shorthair since her fur is extremely dense (though obviously short). None of my cat-owning friends had ever seen a short-haired cat that sheds as much as this adorable little furball does. I was suspicious of the Furminator, which is expensive and seems to be less well tolerated by kitties, and I didn't think my cat would go for it in any case since she can be pretty fussy about being groomed. The softer rubber of the Zoom Groom appealed to me - as did the price tag. Well I got it three days ago and it's been amazing. I've removed more hair with it in one session (as another reviewer on here says, about two golf ball sized clumps every time I use it) than I ever did with the flea comb. I mostly use it running back and forth along her spine and sides, as the circular motion seems to make her less happy. I find it's helpful to be slower and more gentle when brushing the hair against the growth (from tail to head, for example). It's a good size and weight in the hand, and it's easy to vary the amount of pressure you're using if your cat is like mine and sometimes wants a good heavy brushing and other times will flinch at anything but the lightest touch. Other reviewers have mentioned that the fur doesn't all stick to the Zoom Groom itself and some of it flies about a bit - that's true. I think the best way to go about this is to brush your cat on a flat surface like a desk, table or bed. While you're brushing the cat, stop every few strokes to remove the fur from the Zoom Groom's teeth. Once your cat has been brushed (or has run away when she's had enough!), run the Zoom Groom lightly over the table or bed to pick up the loose hairs. This also works on your clothes and gets a good 75-80% of the fur off. Follow that up with a lint roller (for clothes and/or bed) or a duster (for a desk or table) and you'll find you've virtually eliminated the excess fur. In sum: I love this thing and wish I had bought it last year! Grooming really is important to your cat's health, and your own during shedding season, so if you're on the fence don't hesitate on this one.

I was a bit skeptical looking at this , it just looked odd but it has good reviews so i bought it . Wow 🤩 it's fantastic! I have 2 burmese and not only does it get so much fur off they absolutely love it ! The loudest of purrs and rolling around they are in heaven !

Very happy with purchase mainly due to the quality of the product. Brush relax's cat and is able to remove fur quickly and without pain. Fur gets caught in between rubber cones (best way to describe them) so not too much fur fall onto the ground. The bristles (cones) are thick enough to brush matts out of the cats coat, but soft enough to not pull and hurt her. I was slightly surprised at how big the brush is and it can sometimes be a difficult shape to hold when brushing. Nevertheless, the material helps this matter as it is non-slip. Brush is very easy to keep clean which is a bonus. Design is nice. Really cant praise the quality enough. Delivery was quick and price paid is reasonable. Would have given it 5/5, just a few little issues (quite big and shape a bit tricky). Would recommend to all cat owners.

I had been considering a Furminator, but having read some reviews that suggested it might cut or pull at the hair (accompanied with pictures of cats with bald patches after their over-eager humans went a bit too far) I decided to play it safe - and cheaper - and get the Zoom Groom instead. First impressions: it's a bit uninspiring to look at. A series of rubber cones attached to a twee rubber cat. Hardly an impressive feat of modern engineering, but I'm prepared to be wowed nonetheless. First use: Well there's that 'wow'. My cat has never been one for being brushed. Now he's 13 he'll tolerate it with a standard bristle brush, but it doesn't seem to bring much fur off, and can be a bit unwieldy. He seems quite content with this though, and even started purring up a storm while I was doing it. And the fur! The fur! Just a couple of swipes along his back and sides and so much fur is appearing. The downside is that it doesn't all collect on the tool itself; most of it just pools on the cat, but that's easy enough to deal with. Quite a bit flurries off into the air as well... so be prepared for a bit of a fur storm. Removing the hair that does collect on the 'brush' is very easy - far easier than it ever was with a bristle brush. Cleaning it under the tap afterwards is simple and quick. He's not as keen on it being used on his head - it's a bit too knobbly - so I'll keep the bristle brush for that as it's more gentle and soothing. Bonus use: It seems to work absolute wonders at scraping fur off soft furnishings. I've had to throw blankets and towels away in the past because of the difficulty in removing fur from them. I've just tried the Zoom Groom on a fleecy blanket the cat has been sleeping on lately, and the fur just came right off. Even vacuuming this blanket doesn't get the fur off usually because it gets trapped in the fleecy fibres. Conclusion: So cheap, so effective, bonus uses... I like it so much I wrote a review for it - I never write reviews on here.

My cat loves having a groom now. The zoom groom is easy to use and really helps the cat to shed his coat. Good value for money.

I decided to give the zoom groom five stars because my darling house cat found it very relaxing. He's a moggy, and would be classed as semi longhair, with a small ruff, underbelly and britches, and a fat fluffy tail. His fur is silky and fine, but it's extremely thick, especially his undercoat. His longest furry areas are about 3inches long. I tried getting him used to a gentle brushing since he was a young boy, but it always turned into a game of rough housing, I would always stop as soon as he lost self control so he wouldn't think it was a game, but failed in the end. It got to the point where he'd get excited and frisky when he saw me get the comb. So in the end I just gave up. I had a cheapo plastic comb because I thought it was a waste to invest in proper combs and brushes, and I'd occasionally run it through gently, down his back and on either side, sometimes the tail, but basically I am not to comb/brush anywhere else (his rules, not mine *eye roll*) The zoom groom has basic instructions that say to brush in a circular motion. It is very soft despite how spiky it looks, which is good because cats have delicate skin. My cat enjoyed it, like a massage, it was able to loosen up the fur in his undercoat, not much actually came off with the zoom groom, but I was then able to gently comb through the loosened fur and I got a decent amount of loose hairs out using the finer comb. What you see in the picture came from his sides and back using the fine comb. Although I still used the comb, the zoom groom help detangle and loosen things up. He found it very relaxing, purring and making the cutest sounds, so over all I am pleased with the product. He did try chewing the spikes, so I will have to hide it when not in use from the brat. But even if it doesn't remove much fur, I still recommend it because you can use it to massage and bond with your cat/kitten.

I bought this on a recommendation from a friend. Like her own Maine Coon, mine hates being groomed - currently with one of the self-cleaning ball-tip brushes. “Zoom Groom”, I was assured, “They love it, it’s like giving them a massage.” I ordered it day before yesterday, and it arrived today. Nothing to complain about, there. Had it not been such a long day, I might have saved the (undamaged) packaging, before going to use it. But, alas, I didn’t. Too late now! And so it was that, after less than 30 seconds of brushing with it - which she seemed to enjoy - I went to clear the built up fur, and realised that one of the teeth has almost entirely detached, most of the way around the base. And it’s the opposite facing to the direction in which I was brushing, so it wasn’t anything untoward, in her fur! Instead - and as someone who has worked with silicon moulds, and silicon of differing strengths - it either looks like the shear strength of the silicon is off, or else it was somehow mixed incorrectly, as the thickness of the silicon, at the bottom edge of the “tooth”, seems thin, or not connected properly to the silicon base, beneath (see photos). Whatever the issue has been, it’s not what I would expect from a brand new item, and a Kong branded item, at that - seeing as how they tout their items’ strength so very much! Had it not been for the fact that she sat for the (short) time I was grooming her, without complaint - something that doesn’t happens with the brush - this would be in the bin by now, brushed off (no pun) as a cheaply made gimmick. As it is, I’ll alternate it with the brush - I had hoped to bin, altogether, but no fear of that happening, now! Second item in a row from Amazon, lately, that hasn’t lived up at all well to the mega star reviews. As she likes it, I’ll give it three stars from the cat, and a distinct “meh” from me. Unimpressed.

I just have to leave a review for this amazing product. I have a female Persian X Cat who is around 10yrs old that has never enjoyed or really allowed us to comb or brush her. Therefore costly trips to the groomers have always been a twice yearly event to ensure her gorgeous long coat is kept from clumping and becoming extremely uncomfortable. However, after a recent visit to our vet, a nurse asked if we'd tried the Zoom Groom on her? We casually said No and that we had bought and tried every brush/comb but she wasn't having any of it. The nurse really went on about this fab new thing, which led us to have a look and then purchase one from Amazon. We are still in shock as to how AMAZING this very simple product is. Firstly, our cat does not move away at all, in fact she purrs and nudges for more, it also removes lots of her old coat / loose hair without dragging at all so she LOVES IT and so do we! Cannot recommend it highly enough....Brilliant

This is the best brush I have ever used on a short hair cat it gets so much hair off. I have no idea how it works so well but it's amazing.

Beware! These groom well, but my little poodle puppy was teething on it and foolishly I thought it would be good for her teething, being Kong. She managed to break it up and swallow pieces. It gave her nasty diarrhoea. (Purple pieces confirmed the cause.) Just so you know 😑

Excelente produto, retira bastante pelo, fácil de limpar.

Super quick delivery from Amazon! Thought the brush was a bit soiled I gave it a wash before using on my 3 month old Persians. They just absolutely love it!!! And it did pull out quite some hair. It warmed my heart to see them enjoy being brushed for the first time ever! No doubt this Kong product is a must have. Planning to use it on my cocker spaniel too.

Nos sugirieron este cepillo para gatos menores de un año con el objetivo de prevenir problemas futuros relacionados con la piel y el pelaje. A continuación, compartiré las ventajas y desventajas que he observado. Ventajas ✅ Material: El cepillo está confeccionado principalmente con caucho, lo que facilita la recogida eficaz del pelo del gato sin causar arañazos ni daños a su pelaje. ✅ Limpieza: Una vez utilizado, basta con mojarlo ligeramente para que recupere su estado original, lo cual lo hace fácil de limpiar. Desventajas ❌ Pelo enredado: Aunque se recomienda para gatos de pelo tanto largo como corto, personalmente, no lo usaría con gatos de pelo largo, ya que podría causarles daño en caso de enredos. Para estas situaciones, sería más apropiado utilizar un cepillo diseñado específicamente para desenredar. En resumen, recomendaría este cepillo para gatos con pelo corto que aún están en crecimiento, ya que las puntas de goma favorecen la circulación de la piel y probablemente contribuyan a un pelaje más saludable en el futuro. ¡Espero que mi reseña te haya sido útil! 🙂
