I have a long-haired cat &amp; the hair gets into the gears (gives continual error 2). Does this assembly also prevent hair getting into the gears?

I've found it's a significant improvement. It doesn't prevent it completely though. I used to have to clean after every run and had errorr 2's about half the time. Now I clean every other run and have only had 1error 2 in probably 20 runs.

my phat cat runs her head (violently) into the hopper all the time and has still not managed in two years to get the hopper knocked off. the hopper should set down into the chute and then twist to lock into place. double check the interface between the two and good luck.

There is a small drag from this style motor. The geared hub motor has no drag, but gears will eventually wear out

Marilisa we only have a long haired cat and this tool works great on her. So that being said I really can't comment on the short hair situation. Sorry

I purchased S/M but did not use it; my long hair cat wouldn't tolerate the very strong velcro closing which caught a lot of hair as we closed velcro straps, then when removing it, the force needed to actually pull the straps apart made it very difficult to comfortably remove. We purchased the standard harness; no problem.

I don't believe it has that feature. I simply pull the fur/hair off the comb and it's no problem at all.

My cats heads stick out of the opening when they use it, so I really don't see a problem. But I would e-mail or call the manufacturer just to be on the safe side. Good Luck!

My cat did not try to escape from the holster. I think she (more or less) felt secure in it. One thing if you have a rather long haired cat the velcro closure may snag the cats belly hair. Hopefully they will redesign the holster where it attaches on top rather than underneath.

We have cats and have never had problems with cat hair getting inside. Then again, they've never been on top of the toilet tank rubbing against the canister, either. I can't make any promises, but the inside has stayed pretty clean. If you still need something "fully enclosed," this is not the product for you.

if your cat was obedient, otherwise I guess it would just be crawling all over the place, or you cold use the harness and snap your cat in. This is a lovely product and worth every penny, but sometimes my dauschund doesnt want to ride in it - too spoiled haha!Karen

Shouldn't be a problem - not an issue with our long hair cats. You'll have to stop more to fill and empty the tanks.

My cat that was matted is a long hair and it worked really well. I would think it would be just fine.Hope this helps you.

We put some electrical or duct tape around the frayed wires and the end of the wand. It doesn't seem to affect the movement of the mouse. Our cats really love this toy, I wouldn't buy it otherwise. Between the wires fraying and the iffy sharp points and tiny loops where the mouse connects to the wire, the manufacturers really need to do some redesigning. We never leave it out unattended.

No. The brush tips are uncovered. I game mine to a friend who has a shorter haired cat and once again the cat hated it. Buy some with the plastic coated tips if you want a good brushing and a happy 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

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.
