Nasty coughing

In the last 5 days Scratch & Tickle, both 5 months old, are coughing, particularly after waking up. I say coughing, it's more like retching, although they are never actually sick. They crouch down and stretch out their necks, while their little stomachs heave. This lasts for about 1 minute and they don't seem to be distressed or in any pain. At their check up 10 days ago, the vet had checked them and said all was OK with their lungs, they've had all their vaccinations and are both wormed. Initially, I thought it might be hairballs but now I'm not sure. They have never coughed anything up. Any ideas? Thanks.
