（单词翻译）

 If your cat vomits1 repeatedly or makes distressed2 sounds when vomiting3, it is probably sick and should be taken to a vet4 immediately. However, an occasional barf is not unusual for a cat, and is actually a normal part of its routine. Cats swallow plants and grass, in fact, partly to induce vomiting. It probably isn’t half as upset as you are! So, Why Do Cats Barf? Oftentimes it’s not related to food they have eaten at all. Rather, it’s because they groom5 themselves by licking. They use their sandpapery tongues to remove dirt and loose hair from their fur. All this unwanted material is swallowed during the cleaning process. Over time, undigestible clumps6 of hair form in their stomachs. Those clumps need to be removed, and bringing them up in a hairball is a quick and dirty way to get the job done.
