How often should a long-haired cat eat hairball paste?

Expert Answer

To avoid hairball syndrome, give a long-haired cat hairball paste 1-2 times a week, and 3 times a week during shedding season. Long-haired cats shed heavily and are more prone to hairballs.

Besides hairball paste, brush the cat often and clean up loose fur promptly to keep it from swallowing too much hair.
