My cat has hairballs. What's an affordable hairball food or medicine?

Question

My cat has been having more hairballs than usual and I think it might be because I changed his food which used to be a hairball control food. He's been having hairballs every week, not sure if that's normal for a short haired cat. Anyway, I wanted to buy a hairball control formula or medicine but I want one that is good and not too expensive. Thank you. Pet's info: Cat | American Shorthair | Male | neutered | 14 lbs

If he likes his current food then you can add in a hair ball medicine like catlax or laxatone. You can give this to him 2-3 times per week. If you don’t feel like you will be able to do that then I would go back to the food you were feeding before since it seemed to help. I like science diet, Royal canin, Iams, and eukanuba which all should have affordable hair all formula options. I hope this helps!
