Expert Answer

Cats shed mainly in spring and autumn, lasting about 2-3 weeks, though some shed lightly all year. During shedding the coat becomes sparse, loose and prone to falling out, a normal response to temperature changes as the cat adjusts coat length and thickness. During this time brush daily to remove loose hair and dander and keep the coat smooth.

Also ensure enough water and protein to support healthy coat growth.
