I'm seeing this stuff about pills for hairballs. As a raw feeder, aside from brushing them, is there a more natural solution?
What might be causing hairballs?

I don't know. I'd rather be able to adjust dosage as needed, so I add it the the meal as needed.
Do you think it would be OK to grind these up and add it to my cats raw food as I prepare it (a big batch at a time which is then portioned and frozen)?
stiletto The "pills" are a tablet that contains slippery elm bark powder, marshmallow root, and psyllium (and I think chicken liver).I'm seeing this stuff about pills for hairballs. As a raw feeder, aside from brushing them, is there a more natural solution?

I'm egging the crap out of my cats (no pun intended), and the hairballs this year are insane.
I use Lecithin for hairballs. For whatever reason it's not working this season, hence the purchase of VBH.
Maybe we're thinking about this the wrong way? Maybe this year's batch of Lecithin is crap. Fake or whatever. I had nary a hairball last season. While this season, it seems like all brushing and supplementals in the world have done zilch.

Wouldn`t the poop stick to the hairball? I mean what size hairball are we talking about? If it`s the size of a golf ball there might be a problem.Is it possible for a normal volume of poop to go around a hairball?
