If you have Vaseline or coconut oil you can try giving her 1tsp of either. My cats will just lick those off my finger

A wet food diet reduces/eliminates hairballs. If you are still having problems with hairballs after switching to wet, try egg yolk lecithin. It breaks down the fat in hairballs to help kitty pass them through.

Mineral oil and petroleum based products (Laxatone, Petromalt) block nutrient absorption, so I would only use these once in a while.
