Looking for the best cat brush? Petco has a great selection of cat brushes to suit your furry feline. Whether your pet has short hair, long hair, a coat that sheds heavily—we have the grooming tool to meet your needs. Brushing your cat regularly can help keep matting to a minimum and helps distribute their natural oils to make their coat shine.
There are different types of cat brush you can choose depending on your cat’s breed and coat. Does your tabby have a long, flowing coat? A pin brush—the brush that consists of long pins with little balls at the end—is a good option for a long-haired cat brush. It is designed to reach deep down to the skin to gently sweep through it all. If your cat’s fur is heavily matted, you might want to use a wide-tooth comb to work out the heavy tangles before continuing with a regular cat hairbrush. Brushing your long-haired cat daily may help keep their coat silky and smooth.
If your kitty has a short, shiny coat, a great short-hair cat brush typically has soft bristles, so you don’t accidentally scratch your pet. Another popular short-haired grooming tool is the slicker. A slicker has pins that are usually short, and it can be a great cat deshedding brush. Some slickers are also self-cleaning. Most short-haired cats only need to be brushed once a week.
Speaking of cat shedding brushes, if your kitty leaves tumbleweed-like fur tufts all over the house, a deshedding cat hair brush can work wonders. These brushes reach through the topcoat and grab the loose undercoat hairs beneath. They have cat deshedding brushes for both long-haired and short-haired cats. Many are also self-cleaning. These are some of the best cat brushes for deshedding. You can also use cat rakes, blades and combs. It’s good to give your cat a good brushing with a regular cat brush before using undercoat deshedding tools.
If your pet doesn’t like cat brushes and runs and hides when they see it in your hand, Petco has some great solutions that may help get the job done with minimal fuss.
Cat Grooming Gloves These are the ultimate tool for cats who don’t like normal cat brushes. These gloves have silicone or pin-style bristles attached right to the palms. Many kitties might think they’re just getting lots of pets. Instead of running, gloves can help make your cat look forward to grooming time.
Self-Grooming Cat Toys Petco has some great grooming tools that also double as toys. The cat corner brush clips to most corners in your house and has a brushing attachment that most cats love to rub against. Many cat corner brushes even come with a compartment for catnip, making this brush almost irresistible to your feline.
Self-Grooming Cat Arches In the same spirit as the cat corner brush, this toy is an arch made of bristles that your cat may find soothing. While they’re rubbing up against it, they’re also capturing loose hair and helping to make your life a little easier.
Shop Petco for all your cat grooming needs. We have cat clippers and accessories to help keep your pet’s mane silky and well-maintained. Our cat hair rollers can also be a great fur-removing solution.
