Cat Product Reviews
What cat products would you like to see reviewed on the site?
Hi, I’m Jenny Dean, creator of Floppycats! Ever since my Aunt got the first Ragdoll cat in our family, I have loved the breed. Inspired by my childhood Ragdoll cat, Rags, I created Floppycats to connect, share and inspire other Ragdoll cat lovers around the world,
I’d really like to see the FURminator be reviewed, I’ve looked high and low for reviews of it. Everyone raves about it but, i’d like to hear your opinion on it. Also, because I have a Russian Blue with a hearty undercoat, I’d like to see if it’s worth buying. Spring is coming and I think she might go into shedding a lot. Though she is a short hair and you have two beautiful long-haired ragdolls Charlie and Trigg, could you possibly product test on them and on a short-hair like boots , so we could see both types?
Thank you,
-Ana

Ana, my suggestion would be to go to YouTube and search for “Russian Blue and furminator” and see if you can find someone that has a Russian Blue and uses it. My parents have a furminator for their dog and I tried it once on Caymus – it took out a lot of hair (because it also cuts hair – the ends have razors), and took away the sheen on his coat. I will not do a review on it because I do not like that it takes away the sheen and don’t want to do that to my cats. Some people don’t have an issue with that dull look, though, so it works for them. Hope that helps. Jenny
Hi Jenny!
I’m a big follower of your blog, videos, and facebook posts. I’m a soon to be Ragdoll mama. I came across to what it looks like a beautiful and comfy cat tree. Are you familiar with this product? It will great if you would be able to do a review on it.
Thanks!
Kisses to Charlie and Trig =)

I have seen the site before – do not know anything about the product. Have you found any review of Incredible Cat Cat Trees on YouTube?
Hi there! Love the site and I recently became interested in cat puzzles too and that’s how I happened upon you. Anyways, I’m interested in the Neko Cat Flies. They’re a little pricey and I know that my cats would love them (da bird is hands down their favourite) but I’m worried about durability!
I’ve seen a new Kong cat toy that I think my lot would like. They love corrugated cardboard stuff & that’s what this toy is made of: http://www.kongcompany.com/products/cats/active-toys/active-toys/scratch-apple/
Thanks! KONG is un-responsive when I reach out to them, so not sure how to get a product sample, but looks interesting!
Hey Jenny –
First off, I’m a big fan of all your product reviews! Thanks for letting us know of new products that are out there in the pet-shopping world 😉
One request/idea is for you to review a wider selection of litter products. For example, how about pine pellets? breeze litter system? smart cat box? silica crystals? paper pellets? you get the idea… If it is too much of a drastic change for Charlie and Trigg, how about guest reviews done by people already using those products? It seems like there are a ton of reviews for regular clumping litter, but it’s hard to come by good thorough reviews (like the product testing you do) for some of the other litter alternatives.
Thanks!
Jennifer, thanks for the feedback – I am glad you enjoy our reviews.
Yes, on the litter front, I don’t really want to have accidents and I also don’t want to expose them to all those things – I would rather have stability with the litter box than risk it for a review.
Same goes for food, unfortunately.
I will reach out to Smart Cat Box though.
On the Breeze – Tidy Cats is so big that sometimes it is hard to find the right person to contact about a review.
On litter, I wonder if Amazon reviews would be helpful.
