How Does KONG Cat ZoomGroom Work?
KONG Cat ZoomGroom uses flexible rubber fingers that move gently through your cat's coat. As the brush passes over the fur, the rubber surface helps collect loose hair and dander while providing a light massaging sensation.
The massaging action can help stimulate the skin and spread natural coat oils during grooming. Unlike rigid grooming tools, the flexible rubber design allows the brush to follow the contours of your cat's body with gentle pressure.
For cats that enjoy being stroked or massaged, ZoomGroom may help turn brushing into a positive bonding experience. However, every cat has different grooming preferences, so introduce the brush gradually and monitor your cat's response.
How to Use KONG ZoomGroom for Cats
1. Dry Grooming & Deshedding
- Choose a quiet, comfortable location where your cat feels relaxed.
- Allow your cat to sniff and become familiar with the brush before beginning.
- Start with gentle strokes along the back and sides of the body.
- Use light circular movements where your cat is comfortable to help collect loose hair.
- Remove accumulated fur from the brush as required.
- Keep initial sessions short and gradually increase the duration if your cat enjoys grooming.
Tip: Reward calm behaviour with praise or a suitable cat treat to help create a positive association with brushing.
2. Bath-Time Grooming
- Ensure your cat is comfortable with bathing before introducing the brush.
- Wet the coat with comfortably warm water, following your veterinarian's or groomer's bathing advice.
- Apply a shampoo specifically formulated for cats.
- Use the ZoomGroom gently to help distribute shampoo through the wet coat.
- Avoid sensitive areas, including the eyes, ears and any irritated skin.

KONG ZoomGroom vs Traditional Cat Brushes
Different cat grooming tools are designed for different coat care needs. KONG ZoomGroom focuses on gentle massage and loose hair removal, while other brushes may be more suitable for detangling or managing dense undercoats.
| Grooming Tool | Primary Purpose |
|---|---|
| KONG Cat ZoomGroom | Gentle massage, loose fur removal and wet or dry grooming. |
| Slicker Brush | Removing loose hair and working through minor tangles in suitable coat types. |
| Metal Grooming Comb | Checking for tangles and maintaining longer coats. |
| Undercoat Grooming Tool | Removing loose undercoat from suitable thick-coated cats. |
For cats with heavily tangled or matted fur, consult a professional groomer or veterinarian rather than attempting to remove tight mats with a rubber brush.
