Hairballs are a common problem in cats, but there are ways to prevent them from forming. Every cat swallows hair every day, which sticks to their rough tongue when grooming their coat. Much of this hair is excreted naturally, either in the feces or through vomiting.
How can they be dangerous for the cat?
Problems arise when large amounts of hair remain in the cat's stomach and clump together to form solid hairballs (trichobezoars). These can lead to frequent vomiting or even cause a life-threatening intestinal blockage. Chronic hairball problems can also affect your cat's quality of life, as they will vomit repeatedly, have stomach pains and lose weight.
What can I do?
However, there are ways to prevent hairballs in cats.
- Brushing Brush your cat's coat regularly, especially long-haired cats. This helps to remove loose hair before it can be swallowed.
- Fluid intake Promote your cat's fluid intake, as sufficient fluid helps to lubricate the gastrointestinal tract and facilitate hair excretion.
- Food supplements Give your cat special food supplements that facilitate the transport of hair through the digestive tract. With feliTATZ Organic hairball oil, you offer your cat the opportunity to better pass the licked hair through its digestive tract and excrete it.
- Monitoring Consult your veterinarian regularly to ensure that no serious problems with hairballs arise, especially if your cat is prone to chronic vomiting. By taking these measures, you can help prevent hairballs from becoming a serious health problem for your cat.
