Pip is a healthy seeming and normal behaving 13 or 14 week old kitten. As far as the noises, she doesn't do it all the time. Just a few times so far, and maybe when I waited a little longer before putting down the meal. I mean, I know she is a kitten and she gets fed a lot of times a day, so she shouldn't be desperate ever, but it did seem to happen after she was being a bit wolfish. It just seemed a bit weird -- it went on for 10 or 15 seconds, exactly the way you might expect with a hairball situation. How could moist food cause that, even if eating fast? Or maybe its not really linked to eating fast and that is just something I'm imagining...has only happened 3 or so times that I've heard so far. Never any vomitting so far.
She does not groom the other cat yet, and doesn't excessively groom herself, but its quite possible she is eating carpet fuzz or something. I haven't noticed that, but some of the scratching posts do shed a bit so its possible. But it seems to be linked with food, not with hairballs.
