My cat has had this hairball for a few days now and he just can't seem to get it up. Does any one know what I can do to help him. He sounds so awful trying to cough it up and I just don't know how to help him.

This is probably the single most important toy I ever bought. I got it when my boy was a kitten and two years later, he still plays with it every day.

Poor thing!
Are you sure it's a hairball or maybe he's coughing for other reasons - trying to vomit something other than hairballs? Could it be he swallowed anything unusual?
Have you tried petramalt or similar stuff?

He must have passed it on his own. He's been fine lately. He had me worried though!

I noticed my cat Fluffy was trying to cough up something today also, and I assume it was a hairball...it was sad though....she almost acted like she was choking. But then she seemed okay later. Has anyone heard if the cat food that is supposed to help with hairballs actually works?
