The Furminator

Can someone vouch that this device actually works? I’ve seen the videos. I’m amazed, and I’m envisioning my life without each weekend devouted to hair removal from all surfaces. If you have one, could you see if it is labeled with Made in China too? Yes? And that it doesn’t hurt the animal? I’d love this to be a solution to the German Shepherd hair problem.

 I’m not sure this post has anything to do with spirituality and the workplace. I’ll live with that.

Well, over 1000 reviews on Amazon.com give it four or five stars, out of 1100 reviews.

I saw that! And then I started thinking that this was either the single most genius-idea I had ever heard of, or it must be totally fake.

Also, it reminds me of the Flowbee.

I’m staring at a drift of cathair on my desk and contemplating a purchase.

There’s no solution to the German Shepherd hair problem, short of shaving the Shepherd, I’m afraid.

(I’ve never used the product in question. I just know what the Shepherd hair issue is like because my parents have two of them.)

Say it isn’t so, SisterCoyote!

I have one. It’s fabulous. It takes enough fur off of my cat to create a whole new cat. During the shedding seasons (spring in particular) I use it on him every day, and he loves it.

i’ve got one for my short-but-thick-haired dog. her undercoat is phenominal, and the furminator works great on her and my old roomie’s long-haired cats.

Months and months later, I just bought one at my husband’s desperate begging, and it’s WONDERFUL. My coworker also has it and uses it on her two small dogs and two cats and raves about it.

You do have to use it in a spot where you will vacuum immediately after.
