Every now and then, if I notice the cats puking more than normal, we use this stuff on them and have for years. It seems to get the job done because after a treatment, the barfing stops. I would have given it a five, but the cats HATE it. I actually have to smear it all over their leg to get them to injest it, which they then are forced to when they clean their leg. If it was easier to get them to take without making a big mess of their leg and my fingers, it would be perfect!

Pros: Gets the job done

Cons: Cats HATE it

My cat, Cora, has very thick fur. She has always had a serious hairball problem. We started giving her Laxatone early on by smearing it on her foot. We soon found out that she was content to just eat it straight off a plate.

Now she will sit by her plate and try to act like no one has given her Laxatone for days, even though she gets a little every morning.

It has helped to control her hairball problem, though not eliminate it entirely.

Pros: My cat loves this

Cons: she always wants more!

I have used this product for a long time to help prevent hairballs during the shedding season. It does seem to help. I have one cat that eats anything and I have no problem giving him some laxatone off my fingertip. The other cat is more finicky; Sometimes he eats it, other times I have to mix it in some food.

Pros: Product does help prevent hairballs

Cons: Sometimes my cats won't eat it on their own

Only one our two cats seems to get occasional hairballs, and our vet recommended we give him a little laxatone once a week. We put a dab on his cheek, and he will clean himself and ingest it. It's very easy to use and effective.

Pros: Helps reduce hairballs.

Cons: A little sticky.

I have used this for hairballs, my medium haired cat gets them once in awhile and it does seem to help them pass through instead of being vomited up.

Pros: -

Cons: -
