What should I do if the cat starts to shed hair in spring?

Do cats just shed their hair in spring?

Cats usually shed hair all year round, especially when the seasons change, which is equivalent to changing a “new sweater” for themselves in one season.

It should be noted that cat hair loss is a normal physiological reaction and will not cause any discomfort to the cat’s body.

However, if the cat suffers from tinea and other skin diseases, the hair loss is very serious.

Why does it shed so much?

It is said that a cat can grow several hairs from one pore, making it thick and heavy.

The hair loss is for weight loss, and for the purpose of working hard. The bald Twoleg gave a little consolation.

The hair loss is so severe that it is not realistic to shave all the hair?

You can try it on your cat owner and see if he ignores you.

When the cat is shedding, you can brush the cat.

Use a cat-specific comb when brushing your cat, so as to reduce the risk of hairballs

caused by the cat swallowing the hair while cleaning it.

What should I pay attention to when brushing?

Choose a comb with greater friction, which can take away more floating hair from the cat during the combing process.

However, because of the high friction, too fast or too much force can easily hurt the cat. Pay attention to the strength of the brushing and the cat’s mood. Stop in time when your cat is impatient.

You can also give your cat a bath in the spring and summer if there is too much shedding.

The thickest part of a cat’s body is the abdomen. But if the owner is not used to combing, you can start from the top of the head and chin and gradually transition.

What if I lose too much hair?
