Cat Brush: Gentle Grooming for Short and Long Cat Coats

Cat Brush: Less Hair, More Shine

With the right cat brush you take some of the grooming work off your cat's paws. Loose hair and dead undercoat end up in the brush rather than in her stomach or on your clothes. At the same time you massage the skin and spread its natural oils, which gives the coat a healthy shine. If you take it slowly and calmly, many cats come to really enjoy these few minutes together.

Which brush for which coat?

For shorthaired cats, natural bristle brushes and soft grooming brushes work well, gliding gently over the coat. A MagicBrush with flexible rubber nubs picks up loose hair and feels almost like stroking to sensitive cats. Longhaired cats benefit from a double-sided brush with pins on one side and bristles on the other. During moulting season an undercoat rake pulls out the thick undercoat, while a detangler deals with the first small knots.

Comfortable shapes and matching care

An ergonomic handle sits nicely in your hand, so even longer grooming sessions stay relaxed. Oval brushes follow the shape of your cat's body and reach the back and flanks easily. If the coat ever gets really dirty, a mild cat shampoo with lavender rounds off the care. In our range you'll find brushes from brands such as Kerbl and Wahl that have proven themselves in everyday use.

Frequently asked questions

Which brush is best for longhaired cats?
Ideally, combine a pin brush or double-sided brush with an undercoat rake. That way you also reach the deeper layers of the coat where knots tend to form. Always brush in the direction of hair growth and work section by section.

Do I need to wash my cat with shampoo?
Usually not, as healthy cats keep their coats clean on their own. A bath only makes sense if the fur is heavily soiled or sticky. In that case use a mild cat shampoo, rinse thoroughly and dry your cat well.

How do I clean a cat brush properly?
Pull the hair out of the bristles after every use. About once a week, wash the brush in warm water with a little mild soap and let it dry completely. That way you don't put any dirt back into the coat.
