A cat’s overall well-being can quickly become compromised when their urinary system is not at optimum health. Because your cat’s diet impacts what they eliminate, nutrition can play a critical role.

The following food is one of the best for hairball problems: https://www.royalcanin.com/products/royal-canin-feline-health-nutrition-indoor-intense-hairball-34-dry-cat-food/2534 bear in mind the vomiting might be caused by the hyperthyroidism rather than caused by the hairballs.

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!

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.

Laxatone or PetroMalt are recommended. If he will allow, try to brush him daily to reduce shedding. https://www.petco.com/shop/en/petcostore/product/tomlyn-natural-laxatone-cat-hairball-eliminator https://www.petco.com/shop/en/petcostore/product/sentry-petromalt-malt-flavored-hairball-relief

Do not combine foods, this causes GI upset. Brands of food I recommend include Royal Canin, Hill's Science Diet, Purina Pro Plan, and Iams. I recommend these foods because they run their own feeding trials, meet AAFCO standards, and have veterinary nutritionists on staff. They are the only four brands to do this. I think an indoor cat formula would be best for Storm. As for water, get a pet water fountain. It provides a constant source of fresh water, and encourages cats to drink. I have one for my cats, and they love it. Don't change litter if he has one he likes. Cats are very picky about litter, and a change in litter can lead to them not using their box.
