My cat has hairballs. What's an affordable hairball food or medicine?
If he likes his current food then you can add in a hair ball medicine like catlax or laxatone. You can give this to him 2-3 times per week. If you don’t feel like you will be able to do that then I would go back to the food you were feeding before since it seemed to help. I like science diet, Royal canin, Iams, and eukanuba which all should have affordable hair all formula options. I hope this helps!

Can my cat eat hairball control dry food daily if she has no hairballs?
Yes, depending on the food. Most of the brands that claim to have efficacy against hairballs have some kind of formulation that has added fiber designed to help hairballs to pass. Some foods are more effective than others at this (stick to Science Diet, Royal Canin, or Purina for over-the-counter non-prescription diets). These are not usually prescription diets and are almost always ok to feed as a maintenance diet to normal, healthy cats.

My cat has hairballs. What are effective remedies besides paw cream?
Hi and thanks for posting on Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! You may want to try giving them 1-2 tablespoons of plain canned pumpkin (not the pie filling) in their food twice daily. This extra fiber boost can help with hairballs. You can also try the hairball formula from Science Diet which has a higher percentage of fiber in it than other cat foods do to help prevent hairballs. I hope this helps and thanks for posting!

What dry food should I feed older long-haired cats with hairballs?
A high quality food of science diet, royal canin, iams, or purina are great brands. Iams makes a hairball control. You can also purchase hairball medications/supplements and use your favorite food.
