My cat frequently vomits food and hairballs. What can I give him?

Question

My cat coughs up hairballs a few times a week and sometimes vomits undigested food after eating. He eats very quickly so I'm wondering if that's what could be causing the regurgitation. I feed him Royal Canin and Tiki Cat wet food in the morning and a mixture of Solid Gold wet food and Royal Canin dry food in the evening. He uses the litter box with no issues and drinks plenty of water. Is there any supplement I can give him or food that will help?

There is a supplement that you can give him for hairballs (hairball paste- you can find it in any pet shop) but i suspect that neither the hairballs or the fast eating is to blame, it's probably something else and i would recommend having it checked by your vet ASAP.
