Cat hairball’s are certainly not a pleasant thing to deal with. Some symptoms of a cat inflicted with hair balls include: consipation, erratic bowel movements, and lack of appetite. This article will help you with some tips to prevent them.
The first tip is to groom your cat regularly. Long haired cats will be more likely to produce hairballs than short haired cats. However, by grooming your cat regularly, you can help to remove dead hair that would otherwise be consumed by your kitty.
On the market today are a vareity of hairball cat treats designed to break up hairballs within the digestive system. Many of these consist of mineral oil, and most cats are very cooperative with these as they are treats. There are also special lubricants available which can help the feline to digest the hair.
Hairballs can be a serious problem for your kitty. If not treated, they can create intestinal blockage and could be life-threatening. Severe cases may require surgery. If your cat shows behaviors indicative of hairball symptoms (such as retching or constipation), take your feline to the veterinarian in order to determine the best method of hairball removal.
It is important to know that hairballs are a symptom of a behavioral problem, in which the cat will be stressed, compulsive, or bored. In order to treat the behavioral problem behind hairballs, make sure that your cat receives plenty of attention and stimulation through toys, play, and treats.
