Keep Your Cat Feeling Fur-bulous

Hairballs are clumps of hair that cats vomit up after swallowing during grooming. Hairballs may seem harmless, but hair that stays in the stomach too long can harden into a dense mass that can cause digestive irritation and even block the digestive tract.

Symptoms of Hairballs in Cats

  • Vomiting of thin tube-like masses
  • Gagging
  • Poor appetite
  • Lethargy
  • Constipation
  • Diarrhea

Cats More Prone to Getting Hairballs

  • Older cats because they tend to lose more fur with age
  • Long-haired breeds such as Persians and Maine Coons
  • Cats that shed a lot or groom themselves excessively

These holistic supplements have been formulated as a natural remedy for hairballs in cats that can help dissolve digested hairballs, relieve pain & discomfort, and support your cat’s overall health.

Prevention and Additional Support Tips

  • Brush your cat daily to remove loose fur which will effectively minimize hairballs.
  • Talk to your vet about providing a healthy hairball formula food as well as supplementing with cat hairball natural remedies.
  • Keep your cat active to encourage a healthy digestive system which will keep the hair moving through instead of forming clumps.
  • Give your cat plenty of water because dehydration can affect your cat’s digestion.

Causes of Hairballs

Cats have rough tongues that consist of tiny backward-slanted projections called papillae located on the surface area. When cats self-groom, these papillae easily catch the loose hair and fur which is then digested. A majority of this hair passes through the digestive system with no problem, but if the hair stays in the stomach, it forms a hairball. Usually, cats will vomit up the hairball which presents itself as a narrow tube-like structure due to passing through the narrow esophagus.
