Re: Fur Balls...


I've never heard of that Moli?? To be honest in all my years with cats, I have never had a problem with fur balls. I do give them Tuna in oil now and then to try and prevent furballs but I know from a previous thread on here a lot of people don't agree with giving cats Tuna. All I can say is that I Have never had a problem with them even when I had long haired cats...

Re: Fur Balls...


We used to give Sam liquid paraffin when he broke his pelvis to help him 'go to the loo'....
