Tips:
- Feed your cat a high-quality diet: A diet rich in fiber can help prevent hairballs by promoting regular bowel movements and reducing the amount of loose hair in your cat's digestive tract. Look for cat food that contains at least 4% fiber.
- Brush your cat regularly: Regular brushing helps remove loose hair from your cat's coat before it can be ingested. Brush your cat at least once a week, and more often during shedding season.
- Provide your cat with plenty of water: Drinking plenty of water helps keep your cat's digestive system moving smoothly and can help prevent hairballs. Make sure your cat has access to fresh, clean water at all times.
- Give your cat a hairball remedy: If your cat is prone to hairballs, you can give them a hairball remedy to help prevent or treat hairballs. There are a variety of hairball remedies available, including gels, pastes, and tablets. Talk to your veterinarian about which hairball remedy is best for your cat.
- Take your cat to the vet if they are vomiting hairballs frequently: If your cat is vomiting hairballs more than once a month, it is important to take them to the vet. Frequent vomiting of hairballs can be a sign of an underlying health problem.
