I saw on TV this morning (on Sesame Street, of all places) a vet prescribe pineapple juice for a rabbit with a hairball. She said the enzymes in the pineapple juice broke the hair down and allowed it to pass through. This makes sense to me, since this is why you can't use pineapple and its juice in Jell-o, it breaks down the protein and won't let it set. Hair and fur is also mostly protein.
