Indispensable!
I find this type of mat remover indispensable for removing mats, snarls, and the occasional foreign object such as a burr from the fur of both dogs and cats but especially for the latter. These are quite efficient little tools that enable you to remove a mat with little effort and often on the first pass provided your aim is on point. Because each tooth is razor sharp, it cuts through the fur and there is very little pulling on the hairs to cause the animal discomfort. I purchased this one for use on my long-haired cat who frequently develops mats in her hindquarters and tolerates grooming in that area for about 5 to 10 seconds before she attacks me. Without this tool I would be perpetually wounded or would have no other option but to have the vet periodically shave her in this area.I should note that this particular mat remover has longer teeth and is suitable for thicker coats that are medium to long in length. For shorter haired coats and for removing mats that lie close to the skin, you will have better success with the same type of mat remover but with shorter teeth. You can find one produced by the same company on Amazon Hertzko Mat Remover Designed with Sharp Small Trappers – Traps and Removes Mats, Knots, Tangles, or Dead Hair – Suitable for Dogs and Cats. I use the shorter toothed variety for mat removal on a curly-haired Rex breed of cat as well as an elderly cat who can no longer be bothered to groom his short but somewhat thick coat of fur.While there are other types of manual mat removal tools that do work equally well, including scissors, they only do so if the animal is willing to be still or allows you to position him or her – traits seldom found among the feline population. Even cats that enjoy grooming activities such as combing or brushing are often less cooperative when it comes to having a mat or snarl removed. With the level of cooperation afforded me by my cats, I need a tool that will safely allow me to remove a mat in about five seconds or while the animal is in motion. With this tool or its shorter toothed counterpart, I can do both. And it truly didn’t take much practice.

Callie tested, Callie approved
The Hertzo Mat remover is _amazing_. I mean, truly amazing. I have used the Firminator on my other (short hair) cats and that’s been fine. But what I really needed for my cat Callie is the Hertzo Mat Remover. It works as advertised – even better if you ask me.Let me tell you a little about Callie – she is one of my “inherited cats” from my brother. I’m not quiet sure what breed she is, but she has long fluffy hair that gets matted very easily. Callie tolerates being groomed for a short amount of time. She has napping and eating to do, so we have to work in the grooming as we can. Sometimes Callie is finished with being groomed before we are finished grooming her. As she dashes off, the Hertzko Mat Remover takes care of that. It gently removes the mat without disturbing Callie, even when she decides she has other important Cat things to do.And when Callie allows a grooming session, it is amazing to see how much fur the Hertzo Mat Remover removes. I can almost make another cat and a half with all the fur. Callie likes being groomed by this tool and will sit still for the dematting. Her fur is soft with _no_ mats whatsoever. I have resorted to cutting the mats out of her fur at various times because they were just too difficult to try to tease out with the Furminator. This tool makes short work of the task.I’ve had this mat remover for less than a week and I have managed to work out Callie’s mat in that short time period.. Her fur looks and feels better. Callie seems happy to be groomed except for the break for important Cat things. If you have cats (and I presume you do as you are read this far), you know that you can not interrupt important Cat things. I highly recommend the Hertzko Mat Remover for anyone who has to detangle fur. It is a great product. Plus Callie approves of it, what other recommendation do you need ?

Works well on our Bouvier des Flanders. Good value, but with caveats.
Our friends, also Bouvier owners, turned us on to this tool for making efficient work of clearing mats from the coat. It’s definitely one of our better tools, and good value for the money. We have two, one configured for left-hand use, one for right-hand, rather than go through the trouble of reconfiguring a single article depending upon whether my wife or I are using it.First caveat is your dog’s safety and comfort. I would not recommend this tool for a first time user. I also hope that no one actually points the blades toward the skin in the manner shown by the advertising photos. That was cringeworthy! The grip makes it easy to keep the edges and sharp ends parallel or away from the dog’s skin. If you’re not sure, talk to a professional groomer or experienced owner about technique.Second caveat is durability and sharpness. Yes, it is easily cleaned, including in the dishwasher. The stainless is very robust against rust. However, the material durability comes at price of softness and inability to hold an edge, especially against hair. The serrated nature of the edge also precludes sharpening the blades. So this tool has a finite lifespan before it becomes so dull that it pulls the hair excessively before cutting into a difficult mat. If this was a daily use tool on a good-sized dog, I’d estimate needing to replace it every six to nine months.The tool is a good (and inexpensive) attempt at the compromise between a comb, a rake, and a blade. It’s a good intermediate step in finding out what tools and techniques work for you and your dogs.

Tiene bastante filo en la orilla, funcionó muy bien para los nudos de los shihtzu, es para personas diestras, después de usar esta herramienta necesitas pasar un cepillo para poder colectar el pelo deslanado de los perros. Es mejor que usar una tijera porque deshace los nudos y con las tijeras dejas mal cortado el pelo.

Funktioniert ganz toll holt auch hartnäckige Knoten raus. Scharfe Klinge aber ohne Verletzungsgefahr. Mehr gibt es nicht zu sagen. Einfach toll.

I bought a Persian kitten a year ago from whom I thought was a registered breeder, when I got to her house and saw the kitten she was really matted and kept hiding in corners, the other kittens were fine. I could not leave her with this woman and paid the 650 pounds that she asked for but I knew I was going to have a lot of problems with her, which I did. With love and kindness a year on she is a lovely cat but still does not like to be combed – I have just found this comb and it really is a God send….thank you Hertzko for your Undercoat Rake, it has really helped with the grooming process, my little girls fur is really woolly so it matts very easily. It gets out a lot of fur and the matts without hurting her and she seems to like the comb too ! I highly recommend this comb best buy ever I give it a 10 out of 10 I only wish I had found this comb earlier.
