Da best way to treat hairballs is prevention. Groomin ur cat regularly iz by far da best way to control dem furs afore dey get into ur kitty’s belly!

A qwik googley search tells us dat we kittehs spend most of our waking time (and since we sleep 16-20 hours a day) we are groomin ourselfs qwite a bit!

how not to groom a kittehAccording to research up to 2/3 of a cat’s shed hair can be ingested az dey groom. (groomin equals lickin and lickin equals swallowed hairs).

When u halp out by groomin ur kitteh u halp reduce the amount of hair going into der gut to form hairballs. Az i said afore prevention iz da key!

We use da [amazon_link id=”B0040QS3PO” target=”_blank” ]FURminator tool[/amazon_link] cause it removes up to 90% off da loose furs and undercoat wif out hurtin ma loverly top coat.

Now I dunt likes to be brushed. I put da bitey on da FURminator n da human dat iz brushin me affer about four strokes. So ma humanz gotta keep up wif me on a daily basis. Cause I am alreddy on meds to regulates ma poops (I haz contipashuns) and a hairball could cause dat to become worse or even a blockage!  So when FURminator came out wif da [amazon_link id=”B0040QS3PO” target=”_blank” ]large cat deshedding tool[/amazon_link] we were very happy. Cause now we gets more of ma furs brushed afore I put da bitey on it! Da tool iz too wide for da little monsters so dey gets to use [amazon_link id=”B000PU31MY” target=”_blank” ]da regular kitteh one[/amazon_link]. We all sez iffen u wanna halp keep ur kitteh healthy and happy FURminate dem regularly!

Since today iz hairball awareness day why not celebrate by going home n groomin ur kitteh? U could make sumfin cool wif da cat hairs when ur dun, MOL.

 

Disclosure: While I did receive a FURminator product to collect ma furs and to write up a National Hairball Awareness Day post, I still finks grooming ur cat iz da bestest way to avoid hairballs and usin a FURminator to do dat iz a purrty good way of removing undercoat and shed furs. Habbing da product given to me did not color ma opinion in da least it only reinforced wot i alreddy knew.

They recommend using the [amazon_link id=”B002RS4WK2″ target=”_blank” ]FURminator[/amazon_link] to collect ur cats hair and not to do it more than 3 or 3 times in a week (just like FURminator recommends).

As you can see I enjoyed da apron very much and would not let H2 use it to bakin da cookies, MOL. I wuz just tryin to make dat saying tru.

Moose Luther Bigglesworth and Dutchess Marie Renee Rennard were ma utter two taste testers.

Moose did not like da Peanut Butter ones so much but Dutchess did enjoys both flavors. Seems like everybuddy lubbed da Oatmeal Cranberry cookies da bestest. Funny cause H2 really, really wanted to nom on da peanut butter ones.

We had cooked both batches at once and fink dat mehbe da peanut butter ones needed to be cooked a little bit longer den da cranberry ones.

I finks we will be telling our utter doggy furrends about the tastin and good for u bake at home cookies fro Freshpet.
