I went to the store to pick up some ferret lax today. Any time I do, I always check the cat hairball section too to see if they have anything that looks good. Today I found a product called Vetbasis Hairball Gel. Has anyone heard of it? I bought some here is the package info: FRONT: Easy to use, petroleum free, vitamin enriched, no trans fatty acids, no sugar or sodium, healthier alternative BACK: Vetbasis Hairball Gel is easy to use. It helps reduce the incidents of hairballs without using petroleum-based additives.

I figured no sugar would be a good thing. Of course I don't even know if my guys would eat it. I want to make sure it would work and would be okay to give them before I let them try it. Thanks.
