Good Product
My cat didn't want to try it at first, had to put on his front paw. Now I just take out the tube and he's ready to get his portion. Happy that it comes in fish flavor to appeal to my cat. Will know more in a couple of weeks weather the hairball vomiting situation gets any better.

Saves the Carpet!
My cat started throwing up all over the place. I took her to the vet but they couldn't figure out what is/was wrong with her and the visit cost $800. They hit her with a lot of stuff including a petroleum gel-based stuff. Happened again a month later. After paying another $800 with the same lack of knowing what the issue was, I finally figured out she was getting recurring hairballs. Not sure why, all of a sudden but now I give her a small dose of Petro-malt which she likes better than the stuff the vet over-charged me for. She doesn't like me giving it to her (I just started with the brand) but it keeps her as a happy cat.

Cats Wont Touch it
I purchased this hoping my cats would eat it if I mixed it with their food. They normally attack their food but smelled the Petromalt and wouldnt go near their bowls.
I had to put some on my finger and hold their mouths open in order to get them to swallow it. They weren't happy.
If the package didn't say Cats Love It! I wouldnt have expected them to eat it.
I would not recommend this to a friend.

I have used several products and his one was introduced to me by my mother who is a cat lover. Well, my two cats have long hair so it was frequent this symptom and I didn't know what to do so my mother recommended it and after three doses..no more hairballs, no more throw up to pick up....WE ARE SO HAPPY WITH THE RESULTS

Changed formula
I have used this in the past and my cat would not hesitate to eat it. I purchased more recently - same item and flavor and she won't touch it. They must have changed the formula.

Is the Original Petromalt (Malt Flavor) available?
Is the original Petromalt (Malt flavor) available yet?
My cats loved the previous product and licked it off my finger, thought it was a treat, but turn up their noses and will not even look at the runnier product. They run the opposite direction!
This was such a great product. . . .
Hi there! Yes the Malt flavor is available.

does your fish flavored petromalt contain 44% mineral oil?
Thank you for your question. Unfortunately, the mineral oil is 10.8%.

Best Hair ball remady
Have 4 cats that refuse any malt, Help
Put a nickle size squeeze of petromalt in a very little dish, and add some tuna water from a can of tuna (say 2 teaspoons) and mix it until the petromalt is blended. I buy the store brand of chunk light in water (.79 cents a can). Chunk light definitely has more liquid than albacore. Store the tuna in the frig for the next application in a few days, and after you use all the liquid from the can, give the tuna to the cat. Cheap enough.

What happened to Cat Lax brand that my cats loved?
Hi, We do not have Cat Lax. I am not sure if this would help you but my cat loves the Cat Laxatone here is the link. :)

How do you use it?
The best way to use it, I found, is
1st: try giving it to your cat on your finger.
2nd: If that doesn't work, wipe just above the cat's paw, on the inside where the paw and leg meet. WAYYY easier and less traumatic than force-feeding.
3rd: If all else fails, as in my case, I purchased a lesser product and put a half dose of each on top of each other... easy as masking a taste until the 'kitt'le got used to the new treat.
Cats are like kids, sometimes they refuse to try something new until they have no choice (like when it's on their fur...). Eventually, they'll line up when they see the tube LOL

My question is below:
Is your petromalt new? Sergeants made petromalt and changed the ingredients recently and most cats HATE IT. They run away and my friends cat got sick. I called Sergeants and they did in fact add something to it...........they said that they received MANY complaints. They will be going back to the original, however, they did not have a date. I was told not to buy any petromalt with "WWW" on the outside of the box.
I will order it if this is the NEWEST petromalt, otherwise I have no choice but to wait until it is in the stores again where I can see the code on the box. Please let me know. I am interested in the malt flavor one. Thank you!.
Yes you are correct, they have changed the formula unfortunately we do not know when the old version will be available again. You may want to try Laxatone, it comes in tuna or original flavor and works great! :)
