I accidentally bought the zoom groom that's for dogs for my cat. Is there a big difference between the 2? Should I return it and buy the one for cats?

Great question! From what I can see, there's really not much difference between the Zoom Groom for dogs and cats. The cat one is a little more flexible to give your cat a massage when you groom them, which cats love. Supposedly the gentle massage action calms stressed or anxious cats. I don't think it would hurt at all to use the dog one on Luna, but if you want the massage action for her, then I would return it and get her the cat one. You can also try the dog one on her and if she hates, then get the cat one. I hope this helps, and thanks for contacting Pet Coach!
