Hi All
I have two shorthaired moggies, one is 13 and the other is 9 years old. We seem to be having more little splotches of vomit in the mornings than usual. 9 times out of 10 there are furballs and I know they can have some practice sessions that don't result in furballs so not too concerned that it's illness per se. They certainly don't seem to be losing weight and seem healthy enough otherwise. The thing that's puzzling me most is that it's mostly in the night when they're confined to the downstairs section of the house. They're hardly ever sick in the day. They're also indoors cats which I believe doesn't help the problem.
My plan is to try mixing in some furball diet with their existing special diet (the younger cat has urinary problems - it's dry food) and try to groom them with a cat wire brush to remove excess loose hair. Does anyone have any other suggestions as to how I can manage this problem? Is it normal to have this every night, (not sure if it's one cat or both)?
Would value any suggestions/shared experience.
