Cats spend hours grooming themselves and as a result, they swallow lots of loose fur and hair which can accumulate in their stomachs. In most cases, the hair is vomited out or emitted with their feces. If the cat's digestive system is weak, the fur and hair can remain inside the cat and cause numerous digestive problems including constipation, vomiting or the build up of toxins. They may loose their appetites and experience abdominal discomfort.

To help relieve your cat from the build up of hair and fur in their stomachs, grooming your cat regularly may help reduce the amount of hair swallowed. Adding fiber to their diet will also aid with digestion and help the hair pass more easily out of their system.

If your cat is prone to developing hairballs, the natural ingredients in Furball Dr. will help their digestive system function properly so that they can eliminate the hairballs before they cause problems for your cat.
