Merino Silicone Grooming Glove

The Merino is a blue silicone grooming glove covered in soft raised tips, so brushing your pet looks and feels exactly like petting them. Loose fur clings to the glove instead of floating onto the floor.

Grooming that feels like petting

Some pets bolt at the sight of a brush. The Merino gives them nothing to run from. It is a five-finger glove for the right hand, with soft silicone tips across the palm and along each finger. Stroke along the coat and the tips gather shed hair while giving a light massage. Because your fingers move freely, you can work around the ears, under the chin, along the legs and down the tail, the places a flat brush skips. The fur builds into a layer on the palm that peels off in one piece. Silicone does not mind water, so the glove works equally well on a dry coat or in the bath with shampoo. It weighs about 50 grams and dries quickly on a hook.

What you get

• Disarms brush-shy pets — a hand stroking the coat does not trigger the flinch that a bristle brush does
• Follows every contour — five separate fingers get behind ears, under legs and along the tail
• Traps the shed hair — fur sticks to the silicone tips and peels away in a single sheet
• Works wet or dry — use it for a daily de-shed or to work shampoo in during a bath
• Goes easy on skin — soft, flexible silicone suits pets with sensitive skin and thin coats

Questions about the grooming glove

Does it fit large hands?
The glove runs on the smaller side. It suits small to medium adult hands best. If your hands are large, expect a snug fit across the palm and fingers.

Is this a pair?
No. Each order is one glove for the right hand. Most people brush with one hand and steady their pet with the other, so a single glove covers a full session.

How do I clean the fur off?
Peel the layer of hair off the palm and bin it. Rinse the glove under warm running water to clear what is left, then leave it somewhere airy to dry.
