Has anyone ever tried laxatone or similiar for excessive furballs?

I have used Defurr UM paste in the past but gave up when I started including the hairball biscuits in the food,at work we normally gave out Katalax but have changed product now because it became so expensive,I am not out on the desk very often but have a feeling we have moved onto the product you mention,a lot of clients say they have a good response by using the product regularly so you are not going to loose out by trying it.
Just remember if you are going to trial the Feliway that it has to build up & be in an area that he mostly uses to get full effect,I think it tells you the area it will cover,just make sure you keep the windows closed though because if any are opened close by it will loose its efficacy .
I do hope he is soon a happier little fellow...x
