"Cats are the ultimate narcissists. You can tell this because of the time they spend on personal grooming. Dogs aren't like this. A dog's idea of personal grooming is to roll in dead fish."

Product Review: CatIt Self Groomer with Catnip
Last month I posted about some gifts Mom took to the kitties at Wayside. Those toys came from Big Apple Pet Supply @BigApplePet and Steven Spitz aka @veganpetman. Because Mr. Spitz is such a cool guy and he knew I wasn't going to get to play with the toys, he threw in a little something for me! He sent me a self groomer made by CatIt.
It comes with the frame that attaches to any flat or corner surface (Mom picked a corner for mine), plastic bristles, sticky mounting strips and my favorite part of all, CATNIP!
Mom put it all together (with my help-that catnip smelled soooo good!) and put it on a corner between the dining room and the kitchen where I already like to rub up against the wall. There weren't many directions, but after looking at it for a little bit, she figured out where the nip was supposed to go and the best place to put a couple of mounting strips.
Let me tell you, this thing is great! I like to be groomed by Dad, but with my CatIt Self Groomer, I can get that feeling anytime I want. I love to rub my cheeks up against it and walk against it when I go into the kitchen.
Check out all the hair in the bristles! That's after having it up less than two weeks!
The CatIt Self Groomer is a really neat product. It's fairly easy to put together and mount. I love to use it and it helps get loose hair out of my coat. It doesn't take up much space and can be put in a number of places. I don't know how easy it's going to come off the wall though or if it will come off cleanly. I guess we'll find that out when it comes time to move. All in all, I (and Mom) would recommend this nifty grooming tool!
Disclosure: I received this product at no cost from Big Apple Pet Supply. All opinions expressed in this post about the product are my honest and true feelings about the product. The fact that I received the product for free did not influence my review.

National Hairball Awareness Day
Today is National Hairball Awareness Day, but guess what? I've never hacked one of those up! I get regular grooming from Dad, so when I take a bath I'm not ingesting all of that loose hair.
Mom had two different tools she used on me before Dad moved in: a brush and a de-shedding comb. They did an okay job, but when we got the FURminator we realized how much better it could be! Dad gets a TON of hair out of me now-way more than he ever did with the other tools. Not only that, but he likes to brag about how much softer my coat is. Mom even said it was shinier! I was a handsome man-cat before the FURminator...can you imagine how attractive I'm going to be to the lady-cats now??
Check out this cool creature Mom and Dad made out of my FURminated hair.

Her name is Ellie because she looks like an elephant! MOL! Mom is so silly!
In honor of National Hairball Awareness Day, everybody should get their humans to give them a good brushing with whatever grooming tools you might have. Nobody likes coughing up a wad of fur, so do what you can to prevent it from happening!
I recieved a free FURminator deSHEDDING tool, but the opinions in this blog are my true and honest feelings about the product and were not influenced by receiving the product for free.
