Li'l Pals Coated Tips Cat Slicker Brush

I bought this for my Russian blue cat and the brush works great. My cat keeps himself well groomed so I only use the brush once a week. This brush probably would not be good for long haired pets or pets who have matted hair. The bristles are fine and a bit flimsy.

I have 3 cats and they fight over their turns to be brushed with this brush. It is small so I can easily get the sides of their faces and their little chests with it.

My adult cat is only about 6 pounds and not very large. She's marked as "short-haired" but she sheds like a Main Coon! This brush gets all that dead fur from her coat before it ends up in her stomach and on my floor. And she loves to be brushed! I imagine it feels equivalent to a back scratcher and a comb combined.

I've been looking for a small slicker brush for my cats. Small ones are hard to find. They make it easier to get in and around the neck area, where the cats love to be stroked. This one is just perfect. It works well on other cat areas too. Not too hard and not too soft.

I ordered 2 more of these brushes so I can have them in several rooms. This is a small brush that easily gets to the areas the larger brushes cant such as behind the cat ears, under the chin, cheeks, belly, even the sensitive legs and behind the rear legs. The tiny metal tips are coated so I would think it would be more comfortable. It gets a lot of hair just fine. Since it's small you have to clean it more often I guess but it's worth it.

Works great for small dog, and he doesn’t mind this one as much as he does other brushes. It’s just right for his 9lb size and the plasticized tips are more comfortable than the plain slicker brush bristles

This brush does the job but is very small. I guess I didn’t realize/note the dimensions before ordering it. It would be great for a kitten or puppy!

The plastic tips are definitely more gentle, so i am much less cautious when brushing. Brush head is small and perfect for use around the face and on the head. While i wanted a brush that I could use on my shorthair cats without worrying about scratching or injuring them with the sharp metal bristles, I feel like this brush does not really collect much fur. My cats aren't heavy shedders, but the other grooming brush (not tipped) picks up much more undercoat (like 80% more fur) than this one. My littlest cat is scared of brushes, so this is the one I use on her (she has no undercoat anyway - barely sheds, just getting here used to grooming) while i use this to groom my older act's face.

It doesn't collect any of the shedding hair off the older cat's body since it doesn't 'trap' and remove shed hairs, it ,more 'brushes' them flat. This brush performs a more cosmetic purpose and neatens up their fur, but does not do much of anything for shedding. … more

Other brushes were too “sharp” for my new kitten and for my adult with medium, fine fur. They now love being brushed! The coated tips do not “scratch” or irritate their skin. The size is absolutely purrfect and allows me to comb areas like their chest, legs, and cheeks. Would buy again!

Bought this for a specific short-haired kitty named Johnny! He loves it and so do a number of his friends! Getting brushed makes them feel so special
