Hello, the photo you uploaded is blurry, so we cannot tell what is abnormal on the cat and cannot give targeted advice. To check whether the cat has ringworm, you can shine a Wood’s lamp on the affected area. If it glows green under the light, the cat has ringworm.

If the cat has a lot of dandruff, it may be from not bathing for a long time or a parasite infection. Find the cause and give the cat appropriate help.
