What does a cat look like when it vomits a hairball?

The appearance of a cat vomiting a hairball is actually when there is a considerable amount of hair mixed with the mucus. First of all, when a cat vomits a hairball, there will be obvious abdominal contractions, and hair can be seen in the vomit. Secondly, compared to regular vomiting, a cat vomiting a hairball has a low frequency and a certain regularity. If you find that the cat is vomiting something other than a hairball, the owner should be especially attentive, as the cat may be infected with other diseases. It is recommended to consult a pet doctor in a timely manner.

1. A cat vomiting a hairball is a simple vomiting response. You can see the cat's abdomen shrinking rapidly, and a small amount or a large amount of hair can be found in the vomit.

2. When a cat is vomiting a hairball, it will also curl up its four limbs, showing a nauseous expression. At this time, there will be vomiting sounds, and the vomited substances are mostly strip-shaped, accompanied by a little food and water. There may be small water bubbles on the hairball, which is normal.

3. The frequency of a cat vomiting a hairball is very low and has a certain regularity, which is quite different from the regular vomiting frequency. If you find that the cat's vomiting frequency is high and lacks regularity, it is likely not to be vomiting a hairball. It is recommended to consult a professional pet doctor in a timely manner.

Note: Vomiting a hairball can be very uncomfortable for the cat, so owners should reasonably feed the cat nutritional paste and catnip regularly to minimize the occurrence of hairball vomiting.
