Vetina CatLax Hairball Remover & Prevention Laxative for Cats | 60 GM
Cats are naturally clean animals that spend a considerable amount of time grooming themselves. During this process, loose and shed hair can be swallowed and accumulate in the digestive tract, sometimes forming hairballs. These may be passed through vomiting or cause digestive discomfort when they accumulate.
Vetina CatLax Hairball Remover for Cats and Kittens is a palatable hairball management product formulated with cereals, natural oils and fats, along with nutritional additives. It is designed to support the passage of swallowed hair through the digestive tract and help manage hairball formation.
The combination of oils and fats provides a lubricating component, while the laxative formulation helps support the movement of ingested hair through the digestive system. CatLax can be used as part of a regular hairball-care routine alongside frequent grooming and appropriate feeding practices.
Supplied in a convenient 60g tube, Vetina CatLax is suitable for adult cats and kittens older than six months. It can be offered directly or applied to the paw for licking, making administration easier for many cats.
