The packaging advertizes dogs ... do these clippers also work on long hair cats?

Ours was so noisy the dog is petrified of it so I don't think a cat would be too keen on it either.

We found the product to be totally unusable due to the noise and the severe vibrations whilst holding it. Look for an alternative as your cat will run a mile when it hears it!

Sure does. Loud noise but try to let your cat get used to the noise before shaving it

My daughter has the same clipper kit and she uses this on her orange tabby. He's big and very very fluffy. It works on him, I'd consider him a long hair.

I've used this to shave numerous cats at the local animal shelter (mainly due to excessive mats that could not be combed out), and yes, it will work. However, it's true that it is noisy and some cats don't like it, but from my experience, the loud 'click' when it's turned on is the scariest part, so I usually turn it on away from the cat, let them calm down a little and get used to the noise, and then proceed.

I use it on a dog! Clippers are not silent. Not sure why you would want to clip a cat?

I used it on my chow chow mix and the reading material claims that you can use it on anything up to cattle! I'm sure it would very well on your cat :)

I must have gotten a bad set of clippers since others had luck. Tried them on a Lhasa apso/shitzu mix and they barely cut any hair off of him. I've been grooming my dogs for 25 yrs and I consider these to be the worst clippers that I've ever had. Good luck

I have a set that we bought for our dog. He is a chow/golden retriever mix. The clippers work well for what we use them for. We don't trim all his hair, just his legs, feet, ears and any excess hair on his hindend . Can't really say how they would work for a full clip but I think they would be fine. Hope that helps.

I know they come in different sizes and for short and long hair. I have the large for short haired dogs. I have a Westie as well, and I use it gently on her, and we always manage to get some out. I know they make them for cats, and mabe for long haired cats, which may be closer to the kind of hair your dog has. Hope this helped.

Yes....and they work great. Might use mine on my two dogs and myself. Buy them you be really satisfied....

Yes- I use them on my cats all the time. Just be sure to only trim the tips of the claws and not hit the vein.

It would totally do that. And it's safe because the blades never touch skin. I cut the back of my own hair with it just using it like a comb, so i bet it would work really well on a cat. A furminator is better for long haired cat grooming but way more expensive. This would work. :)

This worked on our Persian cat. Very long, long thick hair. Huge hair. Blows people's minds when they seem him. The horse clippers we used couldn't cut through the hair. These do. But, if you have a lot of cutting to do (as we did; he's a barn cat and every summer we have to shave him to get rid of the tangles) you will want to do it in a couple of sessions. All clippers get hot with use. These are simply better than most. They worked for Fluffy.

I cannot answer your question regarding grooming your cat, but I use these to groom my two Cocker Spaniels. They are the quietest clippers that I have used, but they do make some noise. As far as vibration while holding them I have found minimal vibration.

Anna, I don't have a dog but it does work well on my long hair and short hair cat... sorry I can't give you the answer you were looking for.

I have 4 Maine Coons-- haven't used it yet (no "cling-ons" as of yet). Have heard be very careful with any clippers as cat skin is very thin. I did buy this for my Maine Coons though and plan to use it when necessary. Shaved butts are really much easier with long hairs. I usually have vet shave them when they do annual dentals. Hope it works for you, probably will.

Yes..? I have two schnauzers...works well. Sometimes the clippers get too hot against their skin...after prolong use.

This comb is designed to remove fleas from cats/dogs... I can't say for sure I have short hair cats. The teeth are doubled and very close together.

I would assume that would work wonderfully well- considering our Persian cat has fur that is the finest I have ever seen - wispy type of fur. The clippers have worked well on our border collie/St. Bernard mix dog as well. Good luck!

I've used it on matted hair on a Great Pyrenees, so it should work on a cat. However if you are not planning on shaving your cat, thinning shears work great by cutting into the Matt and brushing.

The same as a regular clipper, I have 3 of these and use them all day every day. What kind of dog do you have? I am a pet groomer!! They are great clippers!!

They work waaaaay better. I think they have a faster clipping speed, so they will go through much thicker hair. I tried using human clippers on my dog...they got stuck in her hair immediately and didn't work at all. I purchased the Andis clippers and they go right through her hair, like a hot knife through butter. �
