Hi to all

We have some concern with our 2 ex-feral ,long haired kittens getting hairballs.

We were using the Temptation hairball product until we read owners comments and

reviews relating to to possible toxicity of the product,even leading to death.

We have had a suggestion of using coconut oil and a product called Vets Best hairball .

We have always found it best to try and get this sites opinion on these types of questions and

hope that we will get lots of feedback so that we can take the best course of action with our kittens.

Thanks so much

Tony and Kat

Thanks for your reply

We do brush the kittens all the time--but they are ex -feral and while they do enjoy some brushing,they wont stay still enough for intense grooming.

Buy a furminator, brush daily and buy Vets Best Hairball Relief tabs, cats love the tast and eat like a treat. (Sold at amazon and online) very inexpensive.
