Questions & Answers

10 Customer Questions

Does this actually contain maple, as in sugar? Would the tuna flavor be better for her teeth?

Can you mix this product with wet food or does it have to be ingested alone?

Answer by Chewy • Oct 04, 2019
It's recommended to place a small amount on your pet’s nose or paws to stimulate taste interest.

How long is the shelf life? Is there an expiration date on the tube and, if so, how far out is it?

Answer by Chewy • Mar 01, 2022
The expiration date is 3 years from the manufacture date. The expiration date can be found on the crimped part of the tube. The crimped part of the tube is at the opposite end of where the gel comes out. On one side is the the expiration date and the other side is the lot number.

I had tried another hairball gel and he didn't like it. I call customer service and they refunded my purchase. I asked if she had a recommendation for me and she said that a lot of cats like this product and I was surprised because of the flavor, but I purchased this to try it. When I received this item, I started the recommended dosing. I was skeptical at first and then surprised at the fact that he likes it and it seems to be working.

They love the flavor, especially the maple. They all view it as a snack and they will come if they hear me say "Laxatone"! One cat didn't care for it but it was funny - when she saw all the other cats going crazy for it, it seems like peer pressure made her a fan!

It Works!!

Excellent product, first recommended by the vet. I work a dollup into the fur on top of a front paw..Found I had to work it into the fur, rather than just apply

Kitty loved this for years. Last several tubes he seems to snub nose and won't touch. Not sure if the formula and/or taste was altered or if kitty is just being picky. Depends on the tube, which is weird.

Smells great. But evidently not to Smushcat. Lol.

But Smushcat is not happy with the flavor. Don't ask me why I got the maple and not the tuna. I can't speak to the effectiveness of hairball control yet. We'll keep

Maple Flavor Appealing

My cat views this as a great treat. She gobbles it up when offered around twice a week. No hairballs, and it seems to relieve some constipation issues.

Hairballs

Sometime it work, sometimes they still throw up hair balls. They are treated every other day and constantly being groomed, but they still bring up hairballs.

I spoke to a customer service representative, and I was refunded and greatly appreciate it of the result
