I'm not sure just how much difference there is between the different
brands of hairball remedy.  My guys like 8in1 Ferretvite as a treat and
I found out that 8in1 Kittymalt has the same ingredients, except they
substitute mineral oil for the corn oil of Ferretvite.  I give that to
the kids and they never even realize they have been treated.  THey think
they just got another treat.
