Cat Forum / Health and Behavior / November 2006Laxatone
When I went to the vet for Clyde the vet gave us anitibiotics and also some Tuna flavored Laxatone. He seems to like the Laxatone A LOT but maybe a little too much. Whenever I go to the kitchen and stand by the sink he comes up to me and starts meowing like crazy because that's where the Laxatone is. The vet didn't say how much to give him everyday but on the tube it says it is for hairballs. I'm not really sure why she gave it to us but is it bad for him to give him too much? When I put it down a little bit he tries to get to it by getting on his back legs and putting his paws up. When I put it lower he sniffs around it and goes crazy trying to get to it because the cap is off. I actually only give about an inch or so a week. Too much and your kitty will be making a mess that you don't want to see. I wouldn't give that to your kitty every day, it isn't a treat. We don't use it at all but we used to use it only when they were shedding. It should say on the package how much to give him. I still think I'd wait until he was older, though.

My vet doesn't like us to use it everyday as it coats the stomach lining and the kitty doesn't get the appropriate absorption of nutrients from the food it eats. I use Temptations treats for hair balls instead. I have a Maine Coon who easily gets hairballs despite daily grooming. > When I went to the vet for Clyde the vet gave us anitibiotics and also > some Tuna flavored Laxatone.
