I have found Meep a couple of times acting like he is trying to vomit something up, although nothing actually is vomited up. Would this be typical of a hairball problem? Or is it something else? I have regularly given him Kittlymalt - usually twice a week and I wouldn't think that is likely to be the problem, but his behavior is similar to that I've seen some cats go through, only I would say his retching is stronger. Can anyone give me some feedback on this. At this moment, he appears active and otherwise healthy. He has always been what I would call scrawny compared to our other ferret. I am going to try and give him Kittymalt every 12 hours for a couple of days and see if that helps. I could really use some feedback on this. Thanks! Karla [Posted in FML issue 2527]
