Vomiting hairballs is initially quite normal in cats and is part of everyday life. As a rule, cats regurgitate hairballs around once or twice a week. As they swallow a lot of hair in the course of grooming, hairballs can also be found in their faeces. If your cat is a long-haired cat or a cat with a particularly thick undercoat, it may vomit hairballs more often. Your cat may also regurgitate hairballs more frequently in spring or autumn due to the change of coat, but if your cat regurgitates large hairballs unusually often, you should take note. Unsuccessful attempts to retch, vomit or defecate are also clear warning signs. The hairballs in your cat's stomach may be too large to get rid of naturally. Affected velvet paws often show loss of appetite and tenderness in the abdominal region. Vomiting of undigested food or diarrhoea are also possible. Consult a vet immediately at the first sign of hairballs, as they can otherwise lead to inflammation and an intestinal blockage.

If your cat frequently vomits hairballs or generally has a lot of fur and sheds a lot, you can help her in various ways: Brush and comb their fur regularly and remove loose and dead hair so that your velvet paw does not swallow it. This will prevent hairballs from forming. You can also make it easier for your cat to vomit hairballs or excrete them in their faeces. To do this, you should change your cat's diet to several small meals of wet or dry food per day to stimulate intestinal activity, and if your cat has difficulty excreting hairballs, you can help with cat grass. To do this, place one or more pots of special cat grass for your indoor cat. The cat grass triggers a gag reflex and helps the cat to vomit up the hairballs. Fibre-rich food with lots of fibre and malt paste can also help the animal to eliminate hairballs via the intestines. If this does not work and you notice that your furry friend is unwell and is suffering from abdominal pain, diarrhoea or vomiting, for example, you should consult a vet immediately.
