During shedding, many novice cat owners prefer not to touch their pets unnecessarily. Most are simply not ready for this phenomenon and furiously vacuum carpets and sofas after a cat has rocked there.
And even fewer people know how to care for a pet during this time.
Experts in this field say that molting can occur according to rules and without any rules. Let's reveal the details and give some advice.
Shedding without rules
This can be said when the process is not only delayed, but also starts at the wrong time, for example, in the middle of summer.
Then it would be correct to talk not about molting, but about diseases (leukemia, allergies, ringworm and skin diseases) that require appropriate treatment.
The same thing can be caused by ticks and fleas.
If everything is fine with health, then unscheduled molting can be caused by heat, stress and food from the human table.
There is only one way out - contact a veterinarian.
How to deal with hair
If the shedding occurs on schedule, the owner should take care of the pet's proper nutrition.
The diet includes phytovitamins for wool, Omega-3 and Omega-6, sprouted oats or fresh grass, and a boiled egg once a week.
In addition, anti-shedding shampoo, bathing, and regular brushing will help.
However, you will still have to vacuum more often than usual during this period.
