Review: ممتاز - ممتاز Review: Saved My Kitty From Discomfort and Major Constipation - This gel has made my kitty happy and feeling so much better. She has rejoined play time and zoomies have returned as of today. Saved me from a vet bill and IMO saved my cats life as she was declining quickly. Her weight is even returning. She is a rescued Ragdoll and we've only had her several months. I brush her everyday and only started having issues with upchucking her food within 15 minutes of eating the last couple of weeks. It began as once in first week to every other day last week. She was losing weight and was not eating like she used to. I noticed she was losing more hair into the brush and she is a fastidious groomer. I never really saw hair in her vomit but her poops were getting smaller and harder. More pebble like. She was miserable and had an overall malaise. I found out that hairballs don't need to form, that just the hair being swallowed will cause nausea and irritation in the gut causing her to try and get rid of it by regurgitating her food. This is especially true with Ragdolls since they tend to have sensitive tummy's. This lubricant basically grabs the hair and pulls it through the digestive system and lubricates the gut protecting her from further irritation while the hair passes. I started this on Sunday and with the first dose she ate she kept her food down all day. Monday same and was keeping my fingers crossed. Not much change in poops yet. Today 3rd day initial treatment and she chowed down her food and her 2nd BM of the day was a TADA moment. It was bulked up easy to pass and was no longer pebbled. Zoomies return. Her appetite today is awesome and she has not regurgitated her food once since using this. Now I'll cut back to 2x per week for maintenance. She loves the taste and eats it right from a measured teaspoon. It is very sticky but using a spoon instead of fingers makes it easier for her to take it. A little tip that I learned while researching this for hairballs. To avoid nutrition deficiency vet blogs say to not give it with food and to administer 2 hours before or after you feed. Also don't go beyond recommendations since daily use will also block nutrients from being absorbed. I have also added chewable hairball treats to increase her roughage with psyllium and slippery elm which are excellent for healing the gut. Overall I'm tickled with relief and kitty is her old self again. This became an emergency aid and it worked. Thankfully! ## Features - Gentle and easy-to-use digestive lubricant for helping prevent and eliminate hairballs in cats - Delicious tuna oral hairball lubricant gel easily helps cats pass hairballs in litter box - Our Laxatone coats swallowed hair to help it pass through the digestive tract easily ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B003YUYFZO | | Allergen Information | Abalone | | Batteries Included | No | | Best Sellers Rank | #9,541 in Pet Supplies ( See Top 100 in Pet Supplies ) #538 in Dry Cat Food | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 4.4 out of 5 stars (4,184) | | Date First Available | 18 June 2012 | | Flavor | Tuna | | Item Weight | 0.28 g | | Item model number | 410620 | | Number of Items | 1 | | Pet Life Stage | All Life Stages | | Pet Type | Cat | | Product Dimensions | 17.15 x 2.54 x 3.81 cm; 0.28 g | | Quantity | 1 | | Size | 4.25 oz | | Special Features | Flavored, Veterinary Approved | | Specific Uses | Digestion, Hairballs | | Storage Information | Store in a cool, dry place. | | batteries required | No | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Vetoquinol - **Item Form:** Gel - **Material Feature:** Natural - **Number of Items:** 2 - **Scent:** Unscented ## Images ![Laxatone Tuna Oral Gel for Cats 120g - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51ckxE54wnL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Does this product work well as a laxative too? If so, are the serving directions the same?** A: On the tube it says "lubricant for the elimination and prevention of hairballs "....on the back of the tube it says "...a veterinarian formulated lubricant that helps eliminate and prevent hairballs...". This product is not to be used as a laxative. My vet recommended Miralax for constipation in my cats starting with 1/8 teaspoon BUT you need to check with your vet for advice before using Miralax. **Q: Do you receive one tube or two tubes for the price of $30.57?** A: I received one tube for $12.99 so that price should be for two. **Q: In calories not grams: How many calories in 1/2 tsp of Laxatone?** A: There is not a word about calories on the tube. **Q: why are laxative tubes pictured when this is a vitamin supplement?** A: It's not a vitamin supplement. Its hair ball control. It also acts as a laxative. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ ممتاز *by S***H on 7 May 2026* ممتاز ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Saved My Kitty From Discomfort and Major Constipation *by K***E on 10 February 2026* This gel has made my kitty happy and feeling so much better.

Thankfully! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great product *by L***E on 30 September 2026* My moms cat was losing her hair and we couldn’t figure out why. We took her to the vet and I was told it was because of stress! This was great to use, I purchased two bottles, the first one helped with the overgrooming, shortly after 1-2 months, her fur started growing back, this was a huge help, because my girl was balding in the most random spots! ## Frequently Bought Together - Vetoquinol Laxatone: Oral Hairball Lubricant Gel for Cats – Tuna-Flavored, 4.25oz - Cat Hairball Support Crunchy & Creamy Chews, Hairball Remedy Treats, Cat Furball Treatment, Supports Skin & Coat, Vitamins for Digestion, Chicken (30-Day Supply) - CatLax for Hairball Elimination and Prevention in Cats, 2 oz --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/718374509-laxatone-tuna-oral-gel-for-cats-120g](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/718374509-laxatone-tuna-oral-gel-for-cats-120g) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-11-08*
