Hairballs occur when ingested hair builds up in the digestive tract, often causing discomfort, regurgitation, or constipation. Though more common in cats but can also affect dogs—especially those with longer coats or excessive grooming habits.

Animal Essentials’ Hairball Relief Herbal Tonic uses a single, effective ingredient: organic marshmallow root, traditionally used to support healthy hydration and mucous membrane function in the GI tract. By promoting healthy movement of ingested hair through the GI system, marshmallow root helps reduce the likelihood of hairball formation and subsequent digestive discomfort.

This alcohol-free, single-herb formula is safe for daily use and ideal for seasonal shedding, high-grooming periods, or ongoing support. The glycerin base is sweet tasting and appeals to most cats, even picky eaters. Our formula works with your pet’s natural physiology to promote regularity and GI comfort—without relying on petroleum-based gels or synthetic lubricants. And, unlike other hairball remedies, the marshmallow root of Hairball Relief also enhances healthy immune activity in the gut, where most of the body’s immune system warriors are produced!

Animal Essentials’ Hairball Relief stands apart for its simplicity and effectiveness. Made with just one organic herb—marshmallow root—it supports the body’s natural ability to move ingested hair through the digestive system. This alcohol-free, glycerin-based formula contains no artificial additives or lubricants, making it a clean and natural solution for pets that struggle with hairballs. Whether your pet is shedding seasonally or grooms excessively year-round, Hairball Relief provides gentle, daily support you can trust.

    Hairball Relief

    Our vet recommended a different product from this company. When i saw Animal Essentials offered Hairball Relief i gave it a try. This is my 3rd time reordering. It's proven to be a great help for our 12 year old middle aged cat. It most definitely helps save her the harshness of vomiting up horrible hairballs. I'll continue to keep her in good supply as it's incredibly helpful. It's also very easy to count drops needed along with several other of your offerings to keep her in good shape & happy spirits...

    Hairball Relief MIRACLE!

    My cat has been ill for 4 years & I have tried everything under the sun both traditional and holistic and a variety of vets. Nothing worked. Weight loss, vomiting, little interest in food, constant hairballs. I finally found the combo of good quality dry food with both many sources of animal protein and a ton of fiber, topped with pureed likable treats ( variety with each having good extras - B vitamins, green lipped mussels, etc. , added water, 6 small meals a day and then the final addition that turned everything around. Hairball Relief Marshmallow. For 3 weeks I gave her .5 ml orally once a morning on an empty stomach and waited half hour before feeding a meal. She was too difficult to capture with a towel so I began giving her .5 ml 3x a day mixed with her meals . The taste is neutral and there is no smell. I think the 3 weeks allowed her stomach to heal enough so that the marshmallow continued to work even when added to her food. It has been a month with full acceptance of her food, NO VOMITING, NO HAIRBALLS AT ALL, weight gain. All symptoms are gone and she is a totally different cat. I came within one day of euthanizing her. I am so glad that I did not proceed and found this product. I use a combo supplement that has marshmallow root in it as well and it has worked for me also. Thank you so very much.

    Feline hairball relief

    This is an excellent product and easy to administer. I mix it into my cats’ wet food twice a day and it is essential to help with managing constipation. My cats have polycystic kidney disease and are constipated but this natural product is a staple for managing their health. I am so happy to have found this product.
