How We Tested Cat Brush Gloves

We tested 22 cat brushes in real-world conditions, sending bestselling and well-reviewed brushes out to real cat homes for months of combined testing with eager cat testers. Multiple cat brush glove models were also included in the test. After four weeks of at-home trials, our human testers filled out a questionnaire that told us what they thought of the product. We looked for brushes that combined a high-quality build with a comfortable construction that’s easy to use. We also evaluated each glove brush’s effectiveness, gathering data on the test cat’s age and coat type as well.

What to Look for in a Cat Glove Brush

Glove fit and control

Wait says that using a cat glove brush gives more control than simply using a brush itself, but advises to make sure and find a glove that fits well. A good, accurate fit will allow for the best brushing control when cleaning, brushing, and massaging your cat. Good brush control is essential for making your cat comfortable, proper brushing motions, and making sure you’re able to reach all the areas on your cat that you’re looking to massage or de-shed.

Type of bristles

Keep your eyes peeled for cat glove brushes with soft, silicone pins as these are flexible, less abrasive against your cat’s skin, and, Wait says, help to promote blood circulation as you brush. “If your cat has sensitive skin, you’ll want to look for a brush that has nylon-coated bristles that are specifically made for sensitive skin,” she adds.

Functionality

Are you looking for a cat glove brush for grooming, de-shedding, massaging, or bathing your cat? Not all glove brushes are created equally, so it’s a good idea to check what purpose of function prospective glove brushes have been designed for. It will usually say it under the product description, if not directly on the product packaging. As someone in the grooming industry, Wait particularly suggests looking for a 2-in-1 brush that can be used on a cat when their coat is dry or wet, such as one side that’s covered in bristle pins and the other with microfiber or terry cloth.
