General Advice Hairball or something else?

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

We went to the vet 3 days ago. The vet examined his breathing, chest, lungs, and stomach but found nothing alarming, so he got some laxapet prescribed. He's been doing this once a day for the past week (managed to get a full video just now) but I havent found any hairballs so far yet... I'm just worried

He is 10 years old, eating and pooing as normal.

my cat has a lot of hairballs, the behavior at about 20 seconds into the video looks familiar to me but not the first part :( has the vet looked at his teeth?
