FAQs

Is this safe to use on sensitive areas like the belly?

Yes, but you must exercise extreme caution. Keep the blade away from the skin and consider placing a comb between the skin and the mat to act as a guard.

Can I use this on a wet coat?

It is highly recommended to use the tool only on dry fur, as mats are easier to identify and separate when dry.

How often should I use the matt splitter?

Use it as needed when you encounter mats during your regular brushing routine to prevent them from becoming larger and tighter.

Will this ruin my pet's coat appearance?

When used correctly to split mats into smaller pieces, it helps preserve the overall coat volume better than cutting out the entire mat with scissors.

Is the blade replaceable?

The Mikki Matt Splitter is designed as a standalone grooming implement; the blade is not designed for individual replacement.

Troubleshooting

Tool is pulling at the fur instead of cutting

The blade may be dull. Check the cutting edge for debris or signs of wear, and consider replacing the unit if it fails to cut cleanly.

Difficulty inserting the guide into a tight mat

Do not force the tool. Use a detangling spray to soften the knot first, then try to gently pick at the edges of the mat before inserting the guide.

  • Compact size fits easily in pockets or grooming pouches
  • Suitable for both canine and feline coats
  • Helps preserve the coat's length compared to shaving
  • Durable design for long-term grooming use

Cons

  • Requires careful handling to avoid accidental skin nicks
  • Not intended for dematting the entire coat at once

Setup, Compatibility & Care

No assembly is required for the Mikki Matt Splitter; it is ready to use immediately out of the packaging. It is compatible with all dog and cat breeds that suffer from matting, including long-coated and double-coated varieties. To maintain the tool, ensure the blade remains clean and free of fur and skin oils after every grooming session. Store the splitter in a dry place to prevent corrosion and protect the blade edge. Regularly inspect the blade for sharpness; if it becomes dull, replace the tool to ensure the cutting action remains smooth and painless for your pet.
