I always talk about how much I love being brushed, but not just any old brush will satisfy me! It has to be a slicker brush — one of those brushes with the tiny metal tines. It’s like getting the best scritches ever.
I am always ready to be brushed with the slicker brush!
Supposedly, you shouldn’t use these brushes around a cat’s face — I say FEH on that! That is my favorite place to be brushed. My human lets me direct where and how I want my brushing, and even she is not clumsy enough to get the tines near my eyes.
The chin brushing is my favorite part.
Can you tell I am smiling?
My human needs to clean the fur out of this thing — and brush me some more.

Hannah agrees with you Sparkle as she has a brush similar to yours.
Luv Hannah and Lucy xx xx
We agree that brushings are the best.
We can see your enjoyment too 🙂
Smiling? Yes! We can even see your teeth .

Oh, you look like you’re in heaven!!!
You look like you’re really enjoying that, Sparkle! Pierre loves the slicker brush, too, but only on his face. He will insist on more and more on his cheeks until his skin gets red under his white fur from the tines, then gets cranky when the head peep takes it away.
You look so adorable!
My mum has to give me treats to groom me 🙂

I HEAR SOME SERIOUS PURRING GOING ON TOO
HUGS MADI YOUR BFFF
That does look like a great brush Sparkle. We don’t have one like that. You all have a great Monday.
We love seeing that happy face Sparkle!
It feels so good to be brushed, you look like a nice kitty!
That DOES look heavenly, Sparkle!
diego-san is a strictly a furminator guy.
Dat brush am bestest! I always ask fur brushing… Brush am easy word… I just say “bruh?” and Mommy gets the brush!
Squeeee!! Sparkle all those photos could have been ME!! The slicker is my fave brush for sure. And Mom L lets me direct where and what pressure when using around my head and face. And rubbing my cheeks on it are hheeeeeeaaaavvveeennnn!!!!!! I like being brushes all over with it.
Yep, it’s clear that you are enjoying your brushing. And of course, your brush requirements are very exacting. We expect no less of you.
Oooo we need one of those! MomKatt has a regular brush but I bet that’s nowhere NEAR like a slicker brush!
You look SOOOOO happy!
Purrz!

I don’t have a slicker brush, I have a furminator now. And I love brushies! Side face brushies are cool. So are chin brushies. In fact, when mommy waves that furminator at me I come running! It feels sooo good. Don’t you pity the kitties that don’t like brushies? That is soo sad!
Awww your face says “bliss!” Looks like you really enjoy the brush 🙂
My boys like their face brushed, too!
You definitely look like you’re enjoying your brushing Sparkle =)
I am not really a brush cat. Ichiro likes the very soft brush and Gemini loves the furminator!
That is a very happy face Sparkle!
Whoa! You look like you’re in heaven! TW had this brush for the cats that came before me. Since she never throws anything out, she still might have it. I bet I know where too. I love my FURminator although TW thinks Pop uses it too much.
BTW, TW wants to know how your human can focus a camera in one hand while brushing with the other? She’s dumb that way.
Gracie loves her slicker brush, too, Sparkle. Zoe likes it, but is so active that she races off to do stuff after a few brush strokes. Moosey does NOT like being brushed. At all. Go figure! 🙂
Yup, I have exactly the same brush for the kitties. Miss Frankie loves to be brushed with it so much that she will even brush herself when my arms get tired. Since Miss Frankie likes to be petted 24/7 I think she thinks brushing and petting are the same thing.
If it feels good, do it! You look like it feels great! ☺

We have been voting so hope you win Sparkle
Sparkle, you look like you’re in kitty Nirvana with that brush.
Hiya Sparkle, the P.A. sent me to investigate this new-fangled Slicker brush that mew’re showcasing today… and I can tell by your blissed-out expression that this gizmo is a total ‘must-have’ and I’ll be ordering immediately fur all memfurs of the Kitty Clan (UK) Division
Thanks so much fur sharing

You look very happy of your brushies ! Purrs
Mom discovered that Giulietta’s slicker brush works quite well on the rug (as well on us) after Giulietta has left her floof all over it. MOL! We can tell how much you love that, Sparkle. XO, Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth and Calista Jo
Clearly, that’s right brush for you! Thank your mom for stopping by with her birthday wishes for me.
Oohhh… that looks like a super brush, for sure.
I like gettin’ combed with my Greyhound comb. Wish the peeps would get a second one. There’s a reason they have two hands, you know? MOUSES! I should blog ’bout that sometime.
Purrs,
Nissy #Niss4Senate
Pure sensual pleasure!
You sure look like you’re enjoying that brush Sparkle! I hate to be brushed but maybe I’d like one of those. Hmmm. We’ll see. Isabella doesn’t mind being brushed so she gets Furminated. I refuse to have that done to me!
Purrs,
Angel
You are a happy cat there Sparkle. I like to be brushed too
Oh wow, Sparkle… we don’t have a brush like that. But we think we need one now!! Delilah is particularly fond of the brushies, and this looks purrfect!
You look ecstatically happy – what a great brush and some special bonding time for you and your mom!
* Phoebe peers over Harvey’s shoulder taking notes *
Uh huh? Like that eh??
Ohoebe
So that is your secret to staying so pretty.
Mommy has that, and a human one which I love and a Zoom Groom. Ahhhhh.
oh, Sparkle, now we want “the brush” 😀 we can tell you really enjoyed that 🙂 each of us loveslovesLOVES to have our neck and chin brushed. our mom got us a new brush that has bristles plus longer, plastic “tines” that are sort of like your metal slicker.
Pip, Smidgen, Minnie, Hollie
I loves the brushes too Sparkle..any brushes will do..why does your neck look so skinny?? mol..also I wants one of them fluffy cloud beds too!
You look like you’re really enjoyin it!
Aw, you really do enjoy your brushes, huh Sparkle! Love your expressions…I like a slicker brush too!
Wow, you sure are enjoying that brushing, Sparkle.
We’re weerd about brushes. Don’t like them. Fingers are better fer us.
Oh, Sparkle my darling! We are slicker brush soul mates–mine is pink but lots of little tines have fallen out so it is time for the Human to go to the Temple of Pet Smart and buy me a new one.
I think she resents how much I love the brushies–she thinks it is sad how much louder I purr for the brushies than I do for just her giving me pets.
This is kind of norty, but I think it is like when the ladies have little items from Good Vibrations hidden in their drawers and think they’re better than….well, you know.
You look like you really enjoy it!
Sparkle Ralphie loves his slicker brush too! He loves when Mom holds it and he can brush his face however he likes.
