Let's face it, I'm furry! So when I wash myself (several times a day) sometimes I end up ingesting loose fur. Fortunately, my humans have a new easy way to help make sure that fur I accidentally swallow doesn't accumulate in my digestive system, which can be dangerous. They invite me to take some licks off the Hairball LickStick - which I do, because it tastes great (to cats). The lubricant in the Hairball LickStick helps work the fur out of my system so it doesn't become a problem. Between the Hairball LickStick and my humans regularly brushing me, I've got a real good chance at totally avoiding the dreaded hairballs.
