I have a long haired Maine Coon who occasionally brings me "presents" from his litter box.Do you think this trimmer would work well around his bottom?

Blade width, quiet operation, and fine teeth make it perfect for "delicate" areas. Don't know much about your specifics though; my answer refers to my Norwich Terrier.

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.

We have been using this for our Manx - no tail so gota trim. Works great!!!

If it is light work yes, if the hair is thick and/or matted then no. I often use it on feet but sometimes if the hair between the pads have grown too long or thick I often use a larger clipper then go over it with this trimmer.

This trimmer might clip your cat's fur too short. The trimmer runs really load. It scared my dogs. I threw it out.

I wouldn't recommend it for fine hair like that. The teeth are too small - they just push the hair around.

Yes - in short. We use this on our Siamese, which has medium/short hair, and sheds like crazy. Works very well, even though, I would imagine, it would work even better on longer hair. The bristles are not too firm or long for short hair, and would be best suited for removing excess fur. The only thing I would suggest on very short haired cats is too be gentle with the brush. The bristles are not coated or tipped, so could scratch with firm use.I love this product, and my cat loves it too.

Maybe...we have a corgi/aussie X (longer fur) and works great. We stopped at our local PetSmart groomer with the dog and they let us try out a couple different grooming tools, which is how we ended up buying the undercoat rake.

I think it would work great,my beagle loves it,she sleeps on top and I keep blankets on the bottom,the bottom would be great for a cat

I'm sorry, I don't really know anything about cats ... I would think it you bought a longer one you could use that on a short hair

Since I don't have a persian cat I can't recommend what would be the best trimmer ....The Wahl 9284 works well for my 2 small havanese. ...knowing how to groom is key and I am not at all an expert but with some practice and patients I managed to do ok.....if your persian is very matted you will need to use the groomer without any attachments and slowly trim down it is a process. ...I think you would be pleased with the wahl 9284.....good luck!!!

I have a cat with very long hair. It picks up a ton of hair, I couldn't say how it will work for dog hair.

I would imagine it would. I have been picking up long hair cat hair but it is picking up hair that I couldn't even see with the naked eye. It really works better then I expected.

I would go for a smaller trimmer version, this one is more suited for clipping the body just b/c of the width of the blade. I have a giant schnauzer with huge feet and it was wider than I would like to trim his feet just b/c it was hard to get the blade head between his pads.

This is a pretty large clipper made for dogs. I would look for one made especially for cats if I were you.

My cat has medium length hair and the buzzing and slight shock does get through his fur and deters him, so I would think it should work for long haired cats as well.

It works really well to remove the large part of the bur but leaves behind the little prickly parts. I still have to remove those by hand. It does make it easier though because it pulls it to the end of the fur.

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 think it may depend on how round kitty is. We have a 16-ish pound Maine Coon and he uses it. He doesn't have a narrow space phobia, though.

Does she have long hair? I would be concerned that it might hurt a little and scare her. All I know is I got it for my long haired himalayan kitty and she always tries to get away when I comb her. I am going to try the ShedMonster one instead. I really think it might work better for me. I wouldn't recommend it.

It should. We use it on our tabby, who has medium length hair, but also on our spaniels who wear their hair long in the withers and flanks. I have been satisfied, and I think the animals are too. The cat has been shedding rapidly as we transition to our wet season (Florida), and one of the spaniels too, and I think it helps.

I use it on my cat who gets these thick mattes on his back. So it will work, but you just have to go slowly and do a little at a time. You can't just shave like you see the professional groomers do.
