What's this thing called a Furminator?

So Mom has been talking to Dad about how much shedding we've been doing lately. They have been talking about getting us a Furminator.
But Mom says they cost a lot more green papers than a regular brush or comb, but it just looks mostly like a normal cat brush/comb to her. She wants to know if it's really worth the extra 20 green papers or more or if anyone knows how to get one cheaper?

WE want to know if we will mind this thing. We don't mind normal brushes and combs, we like those!

Thanks to all our friends for any advice!

We have a furminator, but we don't like it much, so mom uses a comb on us. We've heard some kitties like the Zoom Groom, so our mom might try that. It costs less green papers than the furminator. And there are furminator "knockoffs" out there that cost less too....

We really like our furminator. It has something that really pulls out lots of loose furs, and then we feel so soft afterwards.

Keep an eye out for sales at non-pet stores that carry pet stuff. That is where we got ours and it made it less costly.

We use a zoom groom too, but it doesn't pull out the fur as much as the furminator.

We have a Furminator and I love it! If you guys like being brushed, you will love the Furminator and it gets out a lot more hair! My human Furminates us, then brushes us to get out the rest of the loose hair. You might try looking on eBay - I hear they are less expensive to get there.
