Thanks for all the advice!

Heh! I always swore I wouldn't end up panicking when either kitty had a hairball, and wouldn't you know, the first time what's most likely a hairball crops up, I panic.

I guess what had me worried most was that after he'd obviously emptied his tummy (who knew such a little guy could have so much in him to throw up!? ), he just kind of picked at his morning meal and then wanted to cuddle, when he usually tears into breakfast like he's never eaten before.

Anyway, I'll zip by Petsmart after work and get some Petromalt for the little guy, and hope that'll clear him right up.
