I don't know the amount but I would like to make a suggestion. My cat was coughing up 1 furr ball every 1 to 1 1/2 weeks when her diet consited of dry cat food only. I began feeding her a 1/2 of a can of wet food everyday and she averages to expel only 1 hairball per month now. Wet cat food is expensive (I give mine fancy feast)so your budget may not allow for this. Also, feeding the cat wet food instead of trying to shove a syringe down her throat everyday may save you from experiencing several unwanted scratches. LOL
Plain vaseline works much better. put some on the top of their paws not a big glob of it or they will sling it everywhere, but small amounts at a time they will lick it off it works.

FISH-O
Cats are carnivores and so you should consider fish oil instead. Just add some to the kibble or mix it in with canned food. Start slowly and work your way up. Begin with a few drops. If the stool becomes very oily when you are increasing... that is when you pull back on the amount. It is an indication that the cat isn't absorbing that amount of oil. Every cat is different.
Keep in mind that olive oil is omega 6 and fish oil is omega 3.

You can give cats about a teaspoon of olive oil.

No you can't. I know this because I went to school for this. Don't give advise if you don't know the answer for certain. This advise will harm a cat. I am serious.
