Our cat doesn't have hairball problems as much since we brush him regularly. He does have problems vomiting in the middle of the night. The Vet thinks he has sensitive stomach.
We've had good results with Pet Wellbeing products. We are looking at their Hairball Gold -
Hairball Gold for Feline Hairballs - My cat has hairballs - PetWellBeing.com
It contains-
  • Slippery Elm inner bark (Ulmus fulva): The powdered bark of the Slippery Elm tree is known for its ability to provide comfort and hydration (due to its slimy texture) to epithelial tissue found in the lining of the throat and esophagus. Slippery Elm has a pleasant, mildly sweet taste and provides easily digested nutrients.
  • Marshmallow root (Althea officinale): Marshmallow contains an abundance of mucilage and is often used to help the throat, lungs and digestive tract.
  • Triphala blend (Terminalia chebula, Phyllanthus officinalis, Terminalia bellirica): This traditional Ayurvedic formula is very effective for helping the GI tract in its normal process of elimination, without causing runny stools.
  • Aloe Vera leaf (Aloe barbadensis): Soothing and cooling to the smooth tissues in the GI tract, Aloe also has a naturally viscous texture and aids with normal repair of the stomach and gut lining.
  • Chamomile flower (Matricaria chamomilla): Many know of Chamomile as a soothing nervine (to help calm nerves). It also can be employed to help comfort the stomach and gut lining.
  • Licorice root (Glycyrrhiza glabra): Licorice can help the stomach to produce stomach acid. It is demulcent (contains mucilaginous properties) and aids with digestion and producing normal bowel movements.
  • Ginger root (Zingiber officinale): Ginger is calming to digestion and helpful for nausea.

Would this help with a sensitive stomach/ irritated mucosa? Would it help to regulate any irregular stomach spasms? Thank you

I have a kitty with a sensitive tummy and he gets regular grain free food mixed with a portion of the Rx food. We've found a happy medium and keep his tummy calm. One thing we learned is that when we introduce a new food, even wet, we have to be very careful and go in very small increments or he could potentially have an adverse reaction.
