    We don't usually buy any wet food because Josie can't have any. I feel too bad leaving her out.

    You think it would help him though?

    Christa - like I said, call your vet.

    We had two cats at the kennel where I work - one longhair, one short. They both ate the hairball formula, and had cat grass to eat.

    There was barf 4 days in a row at one point. I figured it was the longhair, but couldn't prove it.

    So I gave them each about a 1/4" glob of Tonic Lax on their paws. Some cats love the stuff and will lick it off your fingers!

    Whoever it was finally passed a mess with grass in it(I won't get graphic here), and no more barfs!

    Hey - maybe something as simple as cat grass(wheat grass?) It has moisture in it and maybe your other cat can eat it too.

    A lot of the suggestions here have oil, Vaseline(not sure about that), or(me) some wet food. Like, a tsp - let Brodie inhale it before Sis gets near! The bottom line here seems to be more lubrication/moisture in the digestive system.

    hugs

    I have used vaseline before or butter and it helps too. Good Luck!
