Hairball Control for Cats, Chicken, 60 Chews

Cat loves them, dogs beg for them, and no hairballs when using them. Well worth not having to clean my down comforter again!

I have always bought this by going to Petco and never had a problem. Because I always forgot to get it I decided to order this of off Amazon I am not happy it is so hard I have to use a hammer to break it up, and my cat never had a problem eating it before. Now she will not eat it so I now have a cat getting sick all over the house.

We took in a stray recently and the first thing we noticed was that he was vomiting you pretty frequently. First, it was these tiny little clear puddles but then came the logs. Since I have never owned a cat, I assumed the worst and since it looked like something out of his litter box.. I began to panic! Some research into it, I come to find hairballs aren’t spherical like they are portrayed on TV (lol) but rather these logs of hair. My poor baby was throwing one up every few days it seem I ended up doing even more research on what to do about it and these came up! These treats smell awful to me but to kitty, who is extremely food motivated and not picky at all, these are a delight! They are soft enough to crumble and if I forget to put them in his bowl as a side to wet food (he will eat the wet food and the save the treats at the end like a dessert) we will feed them to him when we come home as a treat. He knows where they are located and always follows me to the cabinet when I head in that direction, so you know he really loves these. Aside from that, they work as advertised! We started with 4 to eliminate the hairballs but since not seeing them, we started giving him 2 for maintenance. There was 2-3 nights we didn’t give him any to see the difference it made, and it was the only time we have witness him cough up a hairball since starting these. We love these and will be buying again! Nemo approved!

They could be a bit more soft so they would be easier to chew. They are more soft than the heart shaped brand I was purchasing. I would break in smaller pieces so they are easier for her to chew. She thinks they are treats. That's why I took off one star. I feed her two a day, because of her age and high protein food she eats. They seem to help keep her regular. I would purchase again and have them on subscribe and save.

Now that the new packaging is finally being used for online orders, I will give this product a good review. My cat is an 18-pound beauty that’s got a lot of Maine coon in his lineage. Hence, long hair and LOTS of it! Since I started using this product years ago, he rarely has hairballs and when he does, it’s not a horrible experinece for him — or me. It’s quick and easy, without that awful gagging and struggling to get it up and out! HOWEVER, prior to this new packaging, the product got hard and even breaking it in half, he wasn’t interested. Also, he requires just one a day so it lasts me two months and by then, it’s rock hard. The NEW packaging seals the bag tightly and all is well!!

My cat won't eat these. Not sure why.

Our kitty who will be 17 in a couple weeks did not throw up hairballs, but developed kidney issues about 14 months ago. She is a short hair Siamese/Tonkinese mix. Thanks to our wonderful vet, we got her on a dry kibble kidney diet from Hill's Science and a wet food called HI TOR NEO DIET I found on Amazon after much research. I buy this from Amazon by the case (24 cans). This saved her life, and she has gained back the 3+ pounds she lost. In order to promote better stools, and keep things moving along, I've been giving her this VS Labs or Vermont Naturals Hairballs (these companies are connected and based in Vermont) in her wet food, rather than use the 'stuff you smear on the paw'. Her fur is just beautiful and she is a very happy kitty. When I first gave her a couple little fish-shaped chewy per the directions, she munched them right down. The next time she just turned up her nose and walked away, so now I cut up two every morning with a sharp paring knife and mix into her 1/4 can of wet food. The people in customer service at Vermont Naturals are super nice and helpful and sent me 3 packs of VN by UPS totally free. I learned that VN has just a tiny bit more moisture than VS Labs. Sorry this review is about several items....

My cat would not touch the treats. Not sure why it wasn’t made so that it is appealing to cats. Their Lysine product works really well, which is why I decided to try this over another higher rated product so I’m not sure what happened with this one.

These have not arrived yet, but I gladly give these to my senior cat who sees them as a treat. She has a fur ball problem and started to lose weight while coughing up fur balls. I Have been giving these to her daily for a few months and her problem has abated and she is gaining weight now. I also give her Vets Best hairball pills. 1 pill of each per day. Problem seems to be solved with no visit to the vet. It really has improved the quality of her coat, not as oily and less shedding.

My senior cat loves them :)
