it's 3 am. why am I here. I don't even have a cat
That's a matchbox 20 song!
Gov't mind control, more people every year (who do not have cats) are watching more cat video's, noone seems to know why.
You might have a hairball😂🤣
Lmao
Me neither
she said wait, that tastes good
0:54
Cat: NO NON NO WAIT, I WILL DIE. NOOOO, SERIOUSLY. NOOO wait that's okay
random dude across the internet lol
🤣🤣
Did she say "throw up more comfortably and easily?" Cats look like they're trying to exercise a demon when throwing up a hair ball. Smdh that doesn't look comfortable to me
My cat looks like he needs a exorcism when he hacks up a hair ball
which might be why she recommends giving them medication that makes it more comfortable and easy
just a hunch
Thank you so much. I'm about to lose my mind up in here watching my cat heave and heave and nothing is happening!
Just found this video and I am so relieved 😌 my cat hasn’t pooped or vomited up the hair ball yet but it’s only been 10 minutes and I can tell she is already feeling better. Thankful for this tip!
Grass is an excellent way to help cats get rid of hairballs. The juice within the grass acts as a lubricant and the roughage helps move the hairball through the digestive tract. If the hairball is too big to move through the digestive system, the grass can help them vomit the hairball up because it's made of plant matter, which is indigestible to cats.
If your cat is an inside cat like mine, you can simply go pick a few long blades of grass and feed that to them. This method is safe, effective, and free.
This is very helpful, my cat does the same reflex, we took her to vet today but I was still worried that it might be something else.
My cat was always coughing up hairballs... I was so worried about it... I found out about a de-shedding tool called Furminator. I got one a couple of weeks ago and my kitty started purring the minute I first used it on him. He has not had a single coughing episode since and he has also stopped his obsession of over-grooming... I just used this tool a few times for only a few minutes each time. It is like a miracle.
I love my Furminator brush but still have the hairballs lol
Good information. Thanks!
Thank you so much Doctor for these excellent informations
Thank you! My cat has been trying to expel a hairball for two days. I can't afford an vet. I bought the hairball remedy. My Stella finally got rid of it 🤢 but she's better 👍
cartgamerYT carter why kind of hairball remedy did you buy? I need that for my cat. 🥺
@@heyitsmealyssa Just olive oil. I put a whole lot of it in a can of tuna for about a day and a half. Stella upchucked it in the bathroom finally.
O
@@cartgamerytcarter5729 thanks for sharing my cat is going on 2 days of trying to rid a hairball. Is as getting nervous. But I'll try this
Was she not eating during this? I am having the same issue and nothing is working. He is slightly eating but not a lot.
Thank u so much
Your amazing thank you
*you're
wouldn't it be easier to smear the lubricant onto the cats fur, rather than trying to force feed it. When the cat is throwing up a fur ball, I find it easier to put my shoe on the end comimg out and allow the cat to slowly back up whilst vomiting.
I hate these unskippable ads. Theyve invaded UA-cam and takes longer than before.
I use that kind of stuff for my cat and they recommend to put it on the cats paw so they can lick it off. Most of them will whip it off and fling it all over your furniture etc. I put the recommended dose in my cats wet food and he eats it just fine!
I use a syringe.
The way she picked up the cat by it’s head 🥺
is that bad?
@@adoramiltaala9919 yes kinda look at the cat when she grabs
Ty madam
Thanks
Olive oil works just fine and my cat loves the taste of it
Do u pour some over the food?
How do you give the cat the olive oil?
@@evelynarguetatysick6107 in a small syringe (no needle of course lol) one tbsp worth at a time twice.
Would mct or castor oil be ok?
never use petroleum jelly because it is wheel bearing grease. Use animal fats, such as butter or a nut oil like coconut oil.
Try adding a little sunflower oil from a tin of tuna to her feed .
@Travis Thacker were your born stupid or did it take a long time?
@@armpitfuzz sunflower is even better because it has vitamin E.
iwant to become a comparative psychologist 🙌
My cat Khadijah is a short haired cat but she is trying to cough up a hairball but it never comes out. What should I do if I don't want to take her to a vet?
Lisette Garcia
You have to take her to the vet or else she’ll get sick.
And you could Also get good tips from the vet.
Whats wrong with a vet?
Dont be such a tight arse
I happen to notice your cats name khadija I don't know if you realise that this is one of honoured names of Prophet Muhammad PBUH it's frowned upon and insulting the Prophets and the rest of muslim community
@@misshope795 she loves her cat so in a way it's an honor too
@@misshope795 how do you know he is a prophet?
Steve Irwin sure knows his stuff
Haha omfg..
You are brilliant 😹
This is still funny 😂
I have the vetoquinol gel and my cat won't eat it. It's maple flavored. Who thought that was a good idea? So I literally have to squirt it down his throat. Tried putting it on his paws and it gets in his fur everywhere.
Put it on the top of his paws, not underneath
Coconut oil works beautifully and cats loovvvee that stuff or ☝🏽 have her groomed take her to a pro for a nice fluffy lion like hair cut trust me you will thank me 🤗 it worked wonders for me my poor cat looked miserable everytime she threw up the hairballs now 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
Hello there . How to give the oil to them? Is it okay for any breed?
@@fathimanasreen5994 Hi…I just put a tablespoon full in their side bowl so they have water, food and a side bowl with a bit of coconut oil. The oil will solidify and they will lick it from time to time if your place is warm it will be the perfect consistency not to liquid and not to hard. As for any breed that i’m sorry to say I am not sure I just know two of my vet friends told me it was safe for cats. Just for reference I have a tortie and siamese and my boyfriend and neighboor both have a persian and a bengal hope this gives your purry fury friends some sort of relief.
@@Bouboulina379 thank you so much for the reply☺️🤝
I just coughed up a hairball this morning .lol😂
my cat juts vomit hair and he's not eating at all i dont know what to do ?
Go to a vet as soon as possible, there may be/is an underlying condition. There are many free or low-cost vets available and can be found through your local humane society if you need financial support.
I hope you sorted the issue out, we add a dessertpoon of the sunflower oil off a can of tuna fish to their regular food once a week, we have no issuses with furballs.
@@armpitfuzzWould mct or castor be ok?
I use a syringe to give my kitty the Laxatone.
I just came for the cat
I just came for the hairball 😆😆
Surprised no mention of just letting cat lick melted butter off a finger instead of ingesting PETROLEUM JELLY. Would YOU eat petroleum jelly... it may work but it's NOT a natural food oil......... I'll pass on feeding petroleum jelly to mY kitty... I found they LOOOOOOOVVVVVEEEE licking melted butter off my finger tips
Rlly mate I know I didn't reply but STILL!!
alvatrooper547 huh
This crap does not work on my cat and I am to the point that Idk what to do and I am just about at my wits end
Don’t give up
Petroleum is not good for cats, i wouldn't give it to my cat.
the cat will dispel it. it will allow the hair to cling to the gel and then the cat will shit it out.
And people always say to give petroleum jelly...I have always been wary of giving that.
Organic cold pressed Coconut oil is best. Petroleum is nasty, look up on the Internet where it comes from. I would never give my cat petroleum!
Just don't, Iused this 3 days ago and it gave my cat mild symptoms of lipoid pneumonia, I had given my cat the jelly once before about a year ago when he got constipated without any problems, This time it was different and I wasn't expecting that at all, I guess you can't never be too cautious, there are better alternatives.
Petroleum jelly is a completely inert substance that cannot be digested or processed in any way, which is why it acts as a lubricant. There's a risk for pneumonia but it has nothing to do with it being somehow toxic because of "where it comes from". It's extremely purified.
Giving oil is completely useless, your cat will just digest it, unless you give huge amounts of it which should never be done without the supervision of a veterinarian. Also, cats should not be fed large amounts of fat, they're carnivores that feed on small, lean prey and as such are very prone to cirrhosis.
He has a bunch of stir
Thanks! It really helped me get my hairball out when chloe made me angry ✝️😜
I heard olive oil. Or coconut oil.
I've heard that plant oils are not good for cats.
i give my cat that jelly
Only a product made just for cats.
Bruh use extra virgin cold pressed coconut oil!
1:04 that haircut tho bruhhhh

IM GETTING A RAGDOLL!! (Btw thats the cat shes showing for example)
Nicee
Ty got Roblox?
Lmao yeah. I was on just 20 mins ago
add me - blueshyguyy
Alicia Medway ..... I have two ragdolls 1 is 11 and 1 is 12 years old. Understand though that they're very needy period can be quite vocal and can be somewhat high-maintenance with brushing and hair removal. And they do have genetic heart issues luckily mine have not had any problems. Also ragdolls live between 9 and 13 years old so understand the average lifespan
The girl lookd like a boy or trump
I just let my cat do it’s thing and then clean it up-
