About pet grooming
Pet grooming tools include deshedding combs, grooming gloves, pin brushes, ear wipes, paw balm and grooming kits.
Brushing tools include a two-sided steel deshedding comb, a retractable pin brush with 60 degree steel pins and rubber-tipped grooming gloves for loose hair. Reusable pet hair gloves and a 15 cm scraper lift fur from sofas. Care items include 50 pre-moistened ear wipes, a 50 g beeswax paw and nose balm, a duck foam soap dispenser and 8-piece and vacuum kits.
Pick tools by coat type. Deshedding combs and pin brushes suit longer coats, and gloves suit short coats and pets that dislike brushes. A vacuum kit with a clipper captures hair as you trim. Use wipes for ears and paws, and ask your vet about any skin problems. Introduce new tools slowly.
Pet Grooming questions
How often should I brush my pet?
Short-coated pets do well with weekly brushing, and long coats often need it daily. Brush more often during shedding season, which keeps loose hair off your furniture and clothes.
Is a grooming glove good for cats?
Many cats accept a glove more than a brush, because it feels like petting. Start with short sessions, use gentle strokes and stop if your cat seems unhappy.
What is paw balm for?
A paw and nose balm softens dry skin and protects against rough surfaces. Apply a thin layer and distract your pet for a few minutes so it can absorb before licking.
