Hello. Which is the BEST trimmer that I can use for PERSIAN CATS? Can't seem to find something suitable at Amazon.com. Thank you!

I'm sorry, we have a standard poodle and it seems to work well on her. I think the thought of one of the other clipper users is best, to go to a groomer who works with cats for a suggestion.

Since I don't have a persian cat I can't recommend what would be the best trimmer ....The Wahl 9284 works well for my 2 small havanese. ...knowing how to groom is key and I am not at all an expert but with some practice and patients I managed to do ok.....if your persian is very matted you will need to use the groomer without any attachments and slowly trim down it is a process. ...I think you would be pleased with the wahl 9284.....good luck!!!

This worked on our Persian cat. Very long, long thick hair. Huge hair. Blows people's minds when they seem him. The horse clippers we used couldn't cut through the hair. These do. But, if you have a lot of cutting to do (as we did; he's a barn cat and every summer we have to shave him to get rid of the tangles) you will want to do it in a couple of sessions. All clippers get hot with use. These are simply better than most. They worked for Fluffy.

Sorry, I only groom my dog. You might like to contact a professional groomer, they would be the best source. Good luck.

same noise level as a hair clipper in a barber shop but it doesn't cut my cats fur. my cat is a persian and the blades cannot cut the fur. so far only a pair of scissors cuts my cats fur. this was very expensive and was a waste of time and money.

I would assume that would work wonderfully well- considering our Persian cat has fur that is the finest I have ever seen - wispy type of fur. The clippers have worked well on our border collie/St. Bernard mix dog as well. Good luck!

Someone in one of the reviews discovered that a (presumably) identical styling brush is sold for pet use. It can be found under 'Easy Groom Adjustable Pet Grooming Trimmer Razor Comb,' but does not have particularly favorable reviews. Also the original review from where that was observed was a negative review in which they were trying to use it (this product) on a cat. So, maybe... but probably not.

This trimmer might clip your cat's fur too short. The trimmer runs really load. It scared my dogs. I threw it out.

I'm not sure because I use it for a Wire Fox Terrier dog and the cat hair is finer. A good place to ask would be a groomer at Petsmart what blades they use to groom your kind of cat. I have found them to be helpful. Also look on the internet or U tube. Maybe someone else here will answer. Good luck.

These types of clippers are better for cats Cat Nail Clippers Designed by 2 Vets - Sharp, Stainless Steel Blades - Also Great for Puppies, Birds, Rabbits, Guinea Pigs and More - Durable, Long Lasting, Easy to Use - by KittyNails I bought these safari's for my cat and I think I had an issue with how her nails were turning out. So I bought ones like the amazon link I posted here from elsewhere.

i only use one of the attachments to shave my four cats in the summertime---I don't really know about a detail trimmer with mine there is a toll free number to the wahl company tho---and they are excellent... I have been mega satisfied with this trimmer and it isn't as noisy as others I've had, the cats don't mind it at all---it's so fast ! http://www.wahl.com/contact/

You would have to purchase the comb application set with different size combs, the groomer is amazing . I would trim you cat more often and keep a certain length to avoid matting. Comb once a day with a " furrmanator comb " . My Maine Coon , best time to groom with furmanator was first thing in morning.

I would think you would be looking for comb for your cat rather than this hair trimmer unless you are trying to shave the cat. Hope that helps.

Yes. I have Persian cats. The spayer saturates rather easily, so I spritz very lightly. Works well all over to soften and keep coat silk and smooth. For spot treatments, spritz a little on area and work out gently form bottom of hair up to root of matt. Regular use all over, should keep dogs, less tangled. But try to run a comb through dog daily to have ease of management. I have also heard that groomers sometimes use I believe baking soda (could be corn starch ) directly on dry mat to work out if very stubborn.

Yes. You won't have any problems whatsoever. Buy the no# 10 blade. I love this trimmer. Perfect for my cat and my two dogs.

I bought this for my cat and quickly returned it. My cat is just impossible to groom, so we have our Vet groom her under anesthesia now. Did not use it long enough to determine temperature. Sorry I can't help.

No comparison, in my experience. I found that the Furminator's blade kept popping out. The Desheddinator works as advertised. another big advantage is the coarse comb option. One of our cats tends to be skittish, and the comb is a gentle way to start the grooming.

I have a hymalayan cat and it works great on her. It is noisy, like a typical clipper. The blade did get hot, so you'll have to use the attachments so the heat doesn't bother her. Otherwise, it works fantastic.

I use mine on my long-haired cats. I would suggest you consult a breeder of Red Bone German Sheppard's on what they use and suggest you use.
