I have a cat! :)

And to the other poster, cats can't help hacking up hairballs.

"...And to the other poster, cats can't help hacking up hairballs."

Yes, they can. And you don't need to buy expensive "hairball formula" food, either. Once a week, place about a 1/2 tsp of vaseline on the cats' forelegs, or tail, or some other easy-to-reach place, and the cat will lick it off. It will "grease the skids" so to speak.

Short-furred kitties don't seem to have a problem with hairballs. :) Mine doesn't.

I've had my best cat friend, Gus, for several years now and I've never seen him cough up a hairball. He's a shorthair, so maybe that has something to do with it.

Buy Purina One Hairball control catfood. My cats love it, and they have stopped hacking up hairballs. :)
