Hi, all!
Our 1 y.o. DSH male has started gagging/choking over the past few days, more than he ever has. I think it may be a hairball that he's just not able to clear, but I've never had a cat (that I recall) that had this happen. Should we be worried? Is there anything we can do to help the poor guy? He remains active through most of the day, but is having more occurences of these choking incidents. I'm contemplating taking him to the vet, just to be on the safe side, but figured I'd consult the accumulated knowledge of this group, before I potentially overreact.
Thanks to all!
