Purina Tidy Cats Hooded Clumping Cat Litter Box System
₹4,499

FURminator Undercoat DeShedding Tool for Large Dogs
₹2,999
This is a tool with an edge rather than a brush, and that distinction is where the damage happens: pressing hard or working one area repeatedly cuts the topcoat, leaving a patchy finish that takes months to grow out.
Full details →Who the Purina Tidy Cats Hooded Clumping Cat Litter Box System is for

| Warranty | 1 Year Official Brand Warranty | 1 Year Official Brand Warranty |
| Box count rule | The standard veterinary guidance is one box per cat plus one, in separate locations | not published |
| Cleaning | Hoods trap ammonia, so a hooded box needs scooping at least as often, not less | not published |
| Correct breeds | not published | Double-coated shedding breeds -- Labradors, German Shepherds, Huskies, Indian Pariah dogs |
| Frequency | not published | Once or twice weekly, briefly. Not daily |
| Hood | Contains odour and scattered litter, and some cats will not use a covered box at all | not published |
| How it works | not published | A fine blade reaches through the topcoat and pulls loose undercoat out |
| Litter type | Designed around clumping litter | not published |
| Never on matted coat | not published | Mats must be worked out first |
| Over-use | not published | It has an edge. Pressing hard or working the same area repeatedly cuts the topcoat, which then looks patchy and takes months to recover |
| Size | Suits most adult cats; large breeds may find it cramped | not published |
| Why that matters | Litter box aversion is a leading cause of inappropriate urination, which owners often read as behavioural. Introduce a hood gradually and watch that it is being used | not published |
| Wrong breeds | not published | Should not be used on single-coated or non-shedding breeds -- Poodles, Bichons, Shih Tzus and similar. There is no undercoat to remove and it simply cuts the coat |
