This smells lovely to me but then I am not a cat who doesn't trust anything. Being a typical cat she thought that we'd assaulted her when we put a bit on her paw and ran around the house rather than licking it off nice and sedately. She did stop and lick some of what was left after hairing around the house. I'm not sure how well it has worked, but she is not pulling the fur off her tummy much now (yes, she's been to the vet and had skin samples checked which showed nothing. She gets wormed every 6 weeks because she hunts and she has flea treatment every month so it was caused by none of those things). I kept her in for nearly 48 hours to make her use the litter tray so I could see if I could work out if there was anything going on and her poo was very hard with fur and grass, which is why I'm trying this.

It worked well, but obviously being a cat it was still hard to get him to take it🙄
Customer recommends this product
We purchased this to help our cat who always has a problem with furballs ( despite brushing him regularly) it is particularly bad in spring when shedding his winter coat and they cause him discomfort , he also has IBD and is on a hydrolysed diet so we have to be extra careful that nothing he eats triggers it but at the same time cats with IBD can find it difficult to dispel furballs so felt it was a calculated risk trying him on this, i am happy to say that so far no problems and it has really worked well for him, the paste is really thick and like treacle in texture but not as runny, you can see how this would definitely cling to any furballs and help push them through so it really works and we highly recommend this product, it also has b12 which can also be a common deficiency in cats ( specially with IBD so another benefit)
Hope this review helps .

Below are some recent questions we've received regarding Laxapet Dog & Cat, including answers from our team.
Barbara England
Will this help me poodle with her constipation, she is having difficulties passing stools
Not only does the gel promote better digestion and regular bowel movements, but it is also easy to administer, ensuring stress-free care for both pets and their owners. With natural ingredients and a mild flavor, LaxaPet transforms a common problem into a delightful experience.
Please ensure to seek advice from your vet should the symptoms persist.
Shenaz Sheikh
How old does the kitten have to be for me to give it and will it help the cat to poo
This product should only be used alongside veterinary advice in kittens as it is very abnormal for a kitten to need a laxative like this. I strongly advise discussing this further with your local vet.
Nestar
Can this product be used long term?
If not, what else can be used long term for hairballs?
Thanks
Yes you can use this product at a dose of 1-2.5g three times per week in cats in the long term, whatever helps keep the stools at normal consistency and controls the hairballs.
Ann Mayer
Please would you let me know whether Laxapet is safe for kidnies? My 14 year old tortie is at Stage 2 but is not taking medication. Thank you.
None of the ingredients in Laxapet will directly affect kidneys but I recommend running any supplement/food/mediation past your vet first. In late stages of kidney disease it is important to minimise any dietary changes as much as possible.
Carole Aldridge
How long does it take to work for cat's constipation?
This product should start noticeably softening your cat's stools within a day or two. If your cat is truly constipated and not producing any stools then I strongly advise seeing your vet as prescription medications may be required.
michelle
my dog does very waxy motions which she struggles to pass would this product help she is a 14 year old Chihuahua?
It is worth trying Laxapet. It is a safe, lubricating product which should make it easier for her to pass stools. If possible, you should also add some fibre to her diet. A little cooked veg added to her food would help. (Not starchy like potato, but green veg or carrots are suitable.)
