Zoom Groom for Cats

Soft Rubber Cat Brush That Reduces Hairballs and Calms Anxiety

Product Description

The KONG ZoomGroom for Cats is a soft rubber grooming brush that massages and grooms at the same time. The firm, flexible 3/4 inch rubber teeth act like a magnet for loose hair, collecting it from the coat on wet or dry fur. Regular use helps condition the skin, reduce shedding, and reduce hairball formation. The gentle massage action also calms stressed or anxious cats, including during potentially stressful situations like vet visits.

Features

• Durable and flexible 3/4 inch rubber teeth
• Removes loose hair like a magnet
• Works wet and dry
• Reduces hairball formation with regular use
• Easy-grip rubber body

Benefits

• Reduces Hairball Formation: Regular brushing with this tool removes loose fur from the coat before your cat can swallow it during self-grooming.
• Removes Loose Hair Like a Magnet: The rubber teeth grip and pull loose, dead hair from the coat during each session, keeping it in the brush.
• Calms Stressed and Anxious Cats: The gentle massage action soothes cats during grooming and can help keep them calm in situations they find stressful, including grooming at home and visits to the vet.
• Stimulates Skin and Natural Oils: The 3/4 inch rubber teeth move through the coat to the skin, stimulating blood circulation and encouraging natural oil production.
• Works Wet and Dry: Use it dry for regular brushing sessions and wet during bath time; the easy-grip rubber body is easy to hold onto even when hands and the brush are both wet.

How to Use

Usage Instructions  

• Dry brushing: Brush gently in a circular motion through your cat's dry coat; the rubber teeth grip loose hair and bring it out of the coat without pulling or snagging.
• Bathing: Apply shampoo to the ZoomGroom brush, wet your cat's fur, then glide the brush through the coat in a circular motion to work the lather through; rinse the brush and coat together.
• Use for calming: Run the brush gently along your cat's back and sides in a slow circular motion before or during stressful situations like vet visits.
• Remove collected hair after each session: Pull the loose hair from the rubber teeth after every brushing and dispose of it; the rubber design releases collected hair easily without needing a cleaning tool.

Additional Information

Care Instructions   

• Rinse after bath use: After using during shampooing, rinse the brush thoroughly under clean water to remove all shampoo residue.
• Wash with mild soap when needed: For a deeper clean, wash with soap and water, work it through the rubber teeth, rinse fully, and let it air dry.
• Remove hair after every session: Pull loose collected hair from the teeth after each dry brushing session; buildup between the teeth reduces how effectively they grip and remove new hair.
• Store in a dry place: Keep the brush somewhere dry and clean between uses to prevent moisture from sitting against the rubber.

Safety Instructions  

• Not a chew toy: This is a grooming tool; if your cat starts biting or chewing on the rubber body, remove it right away and redirect them to an appropriate cat toy.
• Avoid eyes and ears: Keep the rubber teeth away from your cat's eyes and ears during grooming; work only across the coat, neck, back, and sides where the teeth can move safely.
• Discontinue if damaged: If the rubber body cracks or teeth begin to break off, stop using the brush and replace it to prevent your cat from ingesting rubber pieces.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: How does this brush help reduce hairballs?

Ans: It removes loose, dead fur from the coat during each brushing session before your cat has the chance to swallow it during their own self-grooming. Less loose fur in the coat means less fur ingested, which reduces the frequency of hairball formation over time with regular use.

Q2: Can this brush be used during bath time?

Ans: Yes. Apply shampoo directly to the ZoomGroom brush, wet your cat's fur, then work the brush through the coat in a circular motion. The rubber teeth push the lather closer to the skin than hands alone and the easy-grip body stays secure in the hand even when everything is wet.

Q3: Does this brush work on all coat types?

Ans: Yes. The rubber teeth work on short smooth coats, medium-length coats, and longer or denser coats without snagging or pulling. It is not a de-matting tool, so for heavily matted coats you would need a separate tool first, but for regular shedding and grooming it handles most coat types well.

Q4: Can this brush help calm an anxious cat?

Ans: Yes. The gentle circular massage action of the rubber teeth soothes cats during grooming and can help reduce stress in situations they find difficult, including trips to the vet. Running it slowly along the back and sides in a calming rhythm can take the edge off for cats that are tense or nervous.

Q5: How often should I groom my cat with this brush?

Ans: Regular grooming sessions are what reduce shedding and hairball formation over time. How often depends on your cat's coat type and how much they shed, but a few sessions per week is a common starting point for most cat owners using a rubber grooming brush like this one.

Q6: How do I clean the brush after use?

Ans: Pull the collected loose hair from the rubber teeth first, then rinse under clean water. For a deeper clean, wash with soap, work it between the teeth, rinse thoroughly, and air dry. After bath use, rinse out any remaining shampoo from the teeth.
