What is Hairball Gold?
Hairball Gold is a natural oil-based liquid intended to help your feline manage hairballs. Plant-based ingredients high in mucilage content (naturally viscous) are combined with other herbs that assist normal elimination through the bowels and help the stomach feel comfortable. All herbal materials are extracted into a healthy base of medium chain triglyceride (MCT) oil, a product shown to be beneficial for general health in humans and animals.
What is Hairball Gold Used For?
Felines routinely have to manage the hair they ingest. Their careful grooming results in the consumption of hair that needs to then pass through their digestive tract and be eliminated in the stool.
Hair is not a substance that can be broken down and digested. If enough hair collects in the GI tract and there is not enough moisture and lubrication to help it pass through, your cat may attempt to vomit or heave up the offending mass. If the mass only partially travels through the digestive tract, it can cause an obstruction. This is very uncomfortable for the cat and can have serious implications if the mass does not eventually pass through. The cat may also heave or retch for long periods of time in attempts to dislodge the hairball.
Several things can help your feline manage the hair he/she ingests. Moisture in the diet is one. Cats that only receive dry food have less moisture in the GI tract than cats that eat wet food or a raw food diet. Be sure you feline has continual access to fresh water.
Regular brushing and providing adequate moisture and fiber in the diet are good ways to help your cat manage hair in the GI tract. Sometimes that is not enough. Hairball Gold will provide a safe and natural way to lubricate the pathway, aiding comfortable hairball excretion.
