We didn't have much of a winter this year, and the shedding season sneaked up on us. Now both of our cats are trying to cough up hairballs, and are failing miserably.
They're still eating and pooping well, but are vomiting small amounts as they attempt to hack up those hairballs. So I want to get a handle on this as quickly as possible, especially as they'll be shedding even more as the weather gets even warmer.
It's been ages since I've had to deal with this problem, and if I understood correctly after reading some posts on this site, looks like Nature's Plus Egg Yolk Lecithin 600 mg. capsules and/or Vet's Best Hairball Relief would be better options than the Petromalt that vets have usually recommended. Or has something even better come along that I missed?
I've started getting serious about brushing them with the Furminator and the flea comb, but was wondering if there's anything I can do to help our cats cough up or pass those hairballs until the aforementioned products arrive from Amazon.
