How often is it normal for longhaired cats to barf hairballs?


Frequent is normal. A cat left to his or her own devices will probably cough up a hairball once or twice a day, or more. The thing is, you shouldn't leave a cat to his own devices.

You need to brush them. While a healthy cat will cough up hairballs frequently, you can reduce it dramatically by regular brushing. Just because it's normal doesn't mean you should allow the condition to persist. It's not healthy for them and they can choke or develop digestive disorders.

I brush my cats but recently my long haired maine coon started vomiting hairballs more frequently. Before she barfed like once every three days but now she does it almost every day, so i'm kinda worried. The tip of her tail also looks thinner, like she lost hair there.

Unfortunately i don't have the money right now. I do plan to take her to the vet as soon as possible but for now i was wondering if feeding her more wet food and less dry croquettes would help somehow, in an effort to lower her stress levels. I don't really know what to do but to make my cat's life more comfortable for now.

Yeah, animal-slave doctors are pretty pricey. I love animal slaves, but I'm allergic AND cheap. I know a lot of people who are basically in and out of the animal-slave doctor's all the time.

Sounds like there may be some irritation. A cat will clean more frequently when irritated and of course, this will mean swallowing more hair than usual. Cats are also prone to becoming neurotic. Putting lotion on the area with thinner hair and keeping the cat from licking the lotion (cone collar) will probably help.

Hmm. I didn't think of cone collars which would help out a lot when applying medicine now that i think about it, though i don't want to see the cat struggle with it. Thanks piano.

Okay, I've bought the needed candy to give out to children for Halloween. It's now sitting in my pantry ready for distribution.

... Now I need to come up with a plan to keep all trick or treaters away from my apartment on Halloween night. I am open to suggestions.


I want this candy. I don't want to give it to anyone.
Lights off. >.<)b
Also, fill your bins and put them in the way of the door.

Unfortunately, my apartment doesn't have a personal outside light, so that's out.

I like the bin idea. Maybe I should fill it with... apples? Yeah. That'll do nicely. No kid will ever come by my apartment again in subsequent years knowing that apples will be all that awaits them. Perfect!
I am fortunate in that I live in a nice quiet neighborhood with no kids. I need not resort to any tricks, as I can have my light on, and have no one show up. I bought the candy, 'planned to give it out', and as I don't like to waste I'll have to take care of it myself.

Pretty sound argument at least for myself. As for you...yeah go with the apple idea. My other suggestion which probably isn't viable is to turn your yard into a maze with Halloween decorations to make it hard to get to your door. Apartments don't usually have much of a yard though so this may not be an option.
Unknown Moderator at another site are accusing me of creating a bait topic when it was a simple question topic that spiraled itself out of my control. Ban not set to expire. Have they even LOOKED at all my topics since I've been there? Ridiculous. I've heard of Admins being hard asses, but come on now. If I can't resolve this through Staff Contact then I just don't care about what they do anymore.
Sounds messed up. From what I've gathered, you simply asked on a site about their affiliate site. Given the fact it's a site they support, I don't really understand how asking about it could be considered a bait topic. It's not your fault the discussion spiraled out of control, and I doubt you could of known about any drama that happened in the past (in which case the past is the past).

On my end I'm just killing time on here waiting for my afk gaming partner (who has been afk for like 40 mins).
They said I knew what I was doing because of a previous topic I posted in, but that does not mean I know exactly what they were about because that was just one side of their story. I wanted the whole story, and well apparently asking that is baiting, but it tells me these two sites are actually still bitter at each other. Maybe one of the Admins got irritated because I gave a pat on the back for one of the users for his witty humor that is on the same level as LockeZ.


So you were banned because you asked for the whole story in another topic, never got said story, and so they assume you were baiting them when in fact all you did was ask a simple question. Sounds like terrible modding. If anything they should have just locked the topic and left it at that.

If anything good came out of this, it was the pat on the back you gave to lockez#4383. I assume the user is part of the lockez collective.
That guy was making me laugh hard that night. I had not seen that level of wit in a long while. What happened next is unknown to me now.
Heh that's always good. I'm also fairly convinced my friend has passed out somewhere before making it back to his pc at this point. Looks like I'll either be switching games, or reading more of my book.

Edit: nvm he's finally back. Only had to wait an hour but oh well lol.
LockeZ
I'd really like to get rid of LockeZ. His play style is way too unpredictable. He's always like this too. If he ran a country, he'd just kill and imprison people at random until crime stopped.

We are all LockeZ on this blessed day

And also all other days. I am everyone, forever.
It's a miracle, I got the whole thing resolved. So the story goes the Moderators had enough with the other community, and told me their side of the story. So basically I was right when I said both communities are kind of bitter with each other.

By the way this was the best post someone made in my topic -

"yall dj house parties"

I couldn't stop laughing.
They probably thought you were baiting since you seemed to be having too much fun at the chaos going on in the thread instead of being aghast that your question had gone far, far awry.
