How Can I Help My Kitten Get Rid Of A Hairball?
I have a 3 month old cat that has been battling a hairball for one week. It’s pitiful. He hacks & coughs, but nothing comes up. He doesn’t mew very much anymore (I think his throat may be raw from all the hacking). I haven’t seen any blood, but I know its wearing him out. He’s still eating.
What I’ve tried:
1. Petgold Hairball malt-flavored paste – for 5 days now (1/4 tsp a day according to package).
2. Wheatgrass – he nibbles on this a few times a day
3. Brushing him 2x a day (prevention)
I feel like he’s suffering & I feel helpless. What else should I be doing? How long does it take for a hairball to come up? I’d appreciate any suggestions.
