Overgrooming

2 replies

Hello,

We moved house last month and although our 2 cats seem to be settling in well, they are CONSTANTLY grooming themselves and as a result, throwing up huge hairballs every couple of days.

One is long haired and would usual throw up a hairball once every 4-6 months but he's had 3/4 in the past month.

I'm aware it's probably stress related and have bought a Feliway plug-in but it doesn't seem to be making any difference. They are still eating, drinking and using their litter tray so no issues there.

Any suggestions on how I can get them to cut back on the grooming would be much appreciated! I do brush them regularly but you wouldn't know it!
