I cannot see a reference to the size of the furball, but how big is it?

Thats what prompted me to get one.. Tonka was leaving behind small tumbleweeds when he stood up

At this rate, it won't be long before you have a whole litter of little Tonkas floating around!

Floating being the key word
When I brush him it floats through the air like dandelion seeds

OoOOoOoo according to the website, it's available a couple of miles from here.

It's definitely worth the money.
I love it. My crew wasn't too sure about it at first, but now they're good about letting me brush them (for the most part). 5 out of 6 kitties here are short-haired and you would not believe the amount of hair I get off of them.

On the west side of... of... somewhere.
After seeing those pics a few days ago, I decided to get one... JoJo isn't the best at brushing, but she's long hair and with the hot and rather humid weather we've been getting here, she needs some serious grooming done.

So, I was in Petco today. I found it in the dog grooming section... eeped at the price, but figured it would probably be worth it.

Attached is the Baby JoJo that i JUST pulled off of her... minus what was on my black pants and the rug. I have pics of those too, but don't want to hijack the thread. Next time I'll continue working on her about getting the belly. She HATES having her belly rubbed, let alone groomed. I got a few strokes off the belly with the Furminator today, but not enough. Trust me, there will probably be a whole 'nuther 'kitten' just from the belly fur.

I'm sorely tempted to buy another one and donate it to our shelter... for all our longhair kitties who pass through the cattery... But i'll have to wait...

I enticed her with Feline Greenies... in my house, the next best thing to 'nip.

Next up will be Jack... he's shorthair, but I'll probably get a fair amount from him as well... I rarely get to groom him... but he may like this one... I did an extensive grooming on him when he got really sick and stopped grooming himself a couple years back. He had mats... and for a short hair... that's freaky. I knew he was really ill at that point. I got him the illness taken care of, but his mats were still there. I nearly had him shaved in a lion cut. But I got all the mats out within a week. He knew i was trying to make him feel better.

Here's the 'kitten'
