Present from the cats

[Abby_Normal]

Just woke up to a birthday present from my cats...

...the longest friggin' hairball I've ever seen, at least 4, maybe 5, inches long. I need to switch back to their old food with the hairball formula.

Oh yes the lovely hairball surprise. I especially hate it when you get up in middle of the night and step in a fresh hairball. I haven't had this problem since I started using the hairball formula food.

When I read this, I thought of the presents one of my cats usually leaves me. One of them has the nasty tendency to not use his litterbox sometimes and will leave presents all over the house for us to find.

Oh the joys of living with a long haired cat. Hairball food, hairball treats, and I still wake up on occasion to that wonderful 'hornking' noise.

Why do they insist on doing that on the carpet? The vinyl's much easier to clean.

Look on the bright side..it could have been a dead animal. Mouse, bird...etc.

We have 3 cats & when one does a hairball the other ones eat it...ewwwww...LOL!

Or cat poop (see my previous post).

I know!!!!! I have a cat that's been puking way more often than she usually does and it's always on the damn carpet.

And that noise is godawful.....the hornking one I mean.

You answered your own question.

For the very same reason that our dogs will keep backing up while puking to ensure maximum mess. Bonus points if you're trying to make them puke on a paper or napkin.

I'd rather have the dead beastie or poop. Vomit is my weakness. Even pit-latrines don't bother me as much...

My cat does that too - just follow the trail of puke to find the offending critter.

BONUS!

Found a dried hairball on my bed. As in it's been there for some time. Fortunately there's no stains on the blanket.

I finally got their old formula so the hairballs should stop.
