That is absolutely not normal behaviour for a house cat, at least none of dozens I personally know do that. I've heard of dogs doing something similar (often due to food anxiety), and that you must do something against it (e.g. slow feeding bowls) because it's very unhealthy.

My cat is FIV+ and is generally more sensitive than most, so its much easier to determine what things bother him. But 100%, either they need a good brushing, something is on their coat that isn't sitting well, or its a food/treat, if puking is frequent.

And no matter how much they love the greenies, the greenies might be the problem.
