Vetoquinol Laxatone Lubricant for Hairballs Tuna Flavored Cat Oral Gel

My cat Bear is a medium haired orange floof and he has really fine hair. He hates being brushed but thankfully his floof doesn’t mat or get tangled however he throws up the biggest hairballs I’ve ever seen. Our vet suggested we try this stuff and I was skeptical because although he is food motivated, I didn’t know if he’d like it and he has white legs so I didn’t want to smear red goo on them. Well I worried for no reason because he goes CRAZY for this stuff. He knows where it’s kept and when he sees me go over to it, he starts making these weirdo noises and actually meows at it and can barely sit still while I put it on my fingers and then he licks it off within seconds. He’s a vocal cat anyway My cat Bear is a medium haired orange floof and he has really fine hair.

He’s a vocal cat anyway but these are some crazy sounds. Not only does he LOVE this stuff, it actually works and he went from throwing up hairballs practically everyday to once a month if that. After the initial week of giving it to him everyday, he only needs 1-2 doses per week for upkeep so it’s very affordable. I definitely recommend however I will say I have 2 other cats who do not share Bear’s enthusiasm for this product but they are pickier by nature. Luckily, this product has two sizes so at least you won’t go broke giving it a try. :) … more

Cats don't hate it. Helps regular movement. Reduces hair balls. Coats - shinier and softer. Difficult to administer. Runny, sticky. So I keep it in the refrigerator and give it to them fast before it warms up and spreads all over. Wish had narrow nozzle to squeeze into mouths. Directions are to put on their nose or paws. Disaster! they flip it off their paw and smear it all over their face.

I'm a Caregiver, and my client has a long haired kitty that had lots of trouble with hairballs. She was frequently vomiting from them. The Vet recommended Laxatone gel. We purchased the tuna flavored Laxatone, and have been using it for several months with very good results. She is passing the hairballs completely through her system more often now, and very infrequently vomits. Easiest way for us to give it to her is to just squeeze some out on top of her food. She eats it up.

Our vet recommended this and he Loves it!!! Normally medicine has an off flavor but this one he views as a treat!!! I highly recommend for cats!!!

I decided to give this hairball remedy a try on our male cat. It arrived yesterday and the tube was only filled to the top of the circle on the front. We don't normally have trouble getting him to lick whatever we're giving him but he won't touch this. I also didn't realize that it is primarily petroleum.

My kitty loves the taste and we believe it helps tremendously with hairballs. Better than hairball food or hairball treats.

Usually, my cat loves this stuff and always asked for it. BUT with this last one, she was disappointed, she smelt it and not touched it!!! :( I think they changed something in their formula or maybe this one is not good...

I have not noticed any better performance than other hairball formulas, but it is thicker and very hard to get out of carpet after kitty flicks it off paw.

My cat has a real hair ball problem. He has long hair & constantly cleans himself. He throws up his hair balls about every 5 days.. YUK... So far this product hasn't helped the problem but still trying. The good part is that he likes the taste. I had tried the dry stuff & he would not touch it....My vet recommended this product. It's not Chewy's fault. I love Chewy...

My long haired cat that the vet prescribed Laxatone for readily licks it up when I squeeze a small line of it on his plate. Very easy. Before I tried this delivery method I did not have any success. Placing it on his fur or attempting to get it near his mouth were not well received. Not seeing many hairballs since he licks it up a few times a week make me think it is working.
