@Chevy454 A normal, healthy cat gets fur in its gut from licking and grooming itself. The fur gets in the way of normal digestion, so the cat has an instinct to eat a bit of grass to make itself sick so it can vomit up the fur balls. It's much worse in long-haired breeds like Persians.
Our cat is only an ordinary moggy, but she sicks up far more than any other cat I've owned. She sicks up large amounts, including her food, every few days. I've had her to the vets. They only say it's "idiopathic" and they can't help. I've tried oil in the feed and lots of daily grooming. It doesn't help. The worst is when she sicks on my books and writing.
