Cat Forum / Cat Anecdotes / June 2007Hairballs
We just don't get them, normally. However, there was a strange thing on the doormat when I got home from work. It looked like a poo, with a tail on it. Panic..foxes have poo with tails on, is there is a fox coming right up to my house to get my chickens? Prolly not.. think it is our second hairball ever.. :-) Tweed > We just don't get them, normally. > However, there was a strange thing on the doormat when I got home from work. > It looked like a poo, with a tail on it.

Furry poop - definitely sounds like a hairball.

[quoted text clipped - 3 lines] > > Tweed I'm lucky that way, too (I should say "we" are lucky that way): Ketzl has only had one hairball episode in the four years he's been here. I brush him every morning, but he still sheds a lot, so I guess I can just be thankful he can either pass them or digest them before they become problematic. But I don't know if I'd recognize one, either. I seem to recall they're weird looking, somewhat like what you described. I hope they continue to be strangers to us.

The only cat I've known to have furballs was, Figaro, the cat I grew up with, she went to the bridge in 1973, I still dream about her sometimes.

Come to think of it, the only cat I had who got hairballs (furballs, if you prefer :-) was my last one, and she was an apartment cat, like Ketzl. All my other cats have been indoor/outdoor cats because I lived where it was safe and possible. For all I know, they may have thrown hairballs outside, especially since they had the ability to eat grass when troubled by them.

Muriel is short haired but has a thick coat that sheds all the time, and being impeccably groomed all that loose fluff has to go somewhere - i.e. onto the kitchen floor via Muriel's tummy. By now it's not even a surprise when I step on one in bare feet. ============== j-c ====== @ ====== purr . demon . co . uk ============== Jack Campin: 11 Third St, Newtongrange EH22 4PU, Scotland | tel 0131 660 4760 <http://www.purr.demon.co.uk/jack/> for CD-ROMs and free | fax 0870 0554 975 stuff: Scottish music, food intolerance, & Mac logic fonts | mob 07800 739 557 |
