My cat has short and long hair. He is part Maine Coon. I don't know which one to buy . I really want one but which is the best for my cat?

I have two short hair cats, and I've found that the small one isn't enough. I wish I had bought the larger one! The only benefit of the small one is one of my cats is a kitten, so it's small enough to fit him. But it's not big enough to fit the older, larger one! I'd say go with the larger one. :)

I have a long hair Maine Coon and purchased the large one and it works great! I would buy this same one over again if necessary. It works great on my cat and I know you would like it for yours! If you have any other questions, please let me know.

I don't know what a Maine Coon is, but my cat is not really a long hair cat, but I wish I would have gotten a long hair FURmainator because some of the hair is longer and he is really hairy not smooth and flat. also get the larger one, I did and I like it.

I just bought the large for my Maine Coon and Persian cats. I think you willl be happy with the large.

I would think the long-haired version. However, you'll have to do some research and maybe even call the company to get a definite answer.

I have purchased both & there is very little difference between the both. the one for the long hair cat has comb teeth very slightly longer. I would buy the one for long hair.

We have 2 cats both short hair. 1 is thicker than the other. It gets down to the skin. My guess would be it would work. You might have to take your time. I have had a long hair cat before and I would have liked to try it on him. Both of my cats love the furminator. I hope this helps.

I am guessing that cat hair is to fine for the comb. It is more for a dog. A Flea Comb (for cats) would be better for your cat. I use that for my cats.

This type comb would work, but you might need it in a smaller size for your cats, depending on the density of the coat. I use this size on my dog but use the next size down for my cats that are part ragdoll and have the type of coat you describe. Any of the Andis combs have blunted tips on the comb to prevent scratching the skin.

I use mine on my long-haired cats. I would suggest you consult a breeder of Red Bone German Sheppard's on what they use and suggest you use.

I have a 13lbd doemstic short hair cat that is 24 inch long from noise to butt. He stand around 1 foot tall on all fours feet. He fits in both condos fine. I was worried he wouldn't fit in the smaller one but he seems to prefer it over the bigger one. Hope that's helps

I love it for my cat, it gets an incredible amount of hair off; so much better than a "regular" brush!

I have only used it for my cat. One side of the comb is for short hair and the other side is for longer hair. The product is so reasonable I would try it...

I have a white long haired cat and he sheds plenty. I bought the Black & Decker vacuum because of that. For me, it works wonderful for pet hair and always use the tool on board that is meant for just that purpose. Happy cleaning!

I purchased the medium one for my dog. I have seen the small one and i think it should be okay for a cat.

I got the short hair for a cavalier. I had doubt and got that one. Works well!!!

For a short haired cat, I'd just comb them more. This cuts coat and I don't think that's what you really want.

I have 3 long- haired cats and i use it dry on them to remove single mats. If she is Severly matted this tool will hurt her. You have to pull on the hair to remove the mat, since this tool is made for dogs not cats. When my cats are severly matted (happens to them the older they get) i take them to the vet and have them shaved. You also could go to a groomer if she will sit. I know what you are going through with the mat situation, i have 2 Ragdolls and a Maine Coon.

Marilisa we only have a long haired cat and this tool works great on her. So that being said I really can't comment on the short hair situation. Sorry

No, my cat did great with this product. She is a domestic short-hair and she wore it for two months.

Maine Coons are big cats, it might be too small for them. All my cats fight over the top layer, however, my 3 cats LOVE this cat tree!! It was a great investment!! It was easy to put together. The only downfall was the pom poms didn't survive too long..lol..

Hi Theresa...I bought this for my daughter (who also has 2 cats) but she hasn't used it just yet. I hope it doesn't attract a lot of hair!!! She won't be using it until she moves at the end of May, so I'm afraid I won't have an answer to that question until then :(

AudreyB, did you purchase this item and find a way to use it with your cat? I also have a very large cat, a Maine Coon that weighs about 22 pounds. I curious to see if you could use this product. Thanks!
