I bought a golden-shaded British cat from a cat cafe; she’s about a year old, recently had kittens and is still lactating, and her coat is sparse and dry—how do I supplement her?
Lactating cats with sparse, dull coats are often undernourished. Add lecithin, fish oil, egg yolk, seaweed powder, salmon, nutrient paste; feed chicken/duck/beef for protein. Also groom regularly, keep clean, and deworm.

Is this the right coat on a silver-shaded (British Shorthair) cat’s back?
