Therefore, it is necessary to find out the essence and cause of hair loss.

Shedding as a cause of hair loss

Shedding is a process of gradual loss of pet's pet. It is the molt that underlies the problem that almost all cat owners face. Its onset sometimes serves as the first sign of a cat's illness.But serious it, or not, can only install a specialist. The origin of the molt is different:

1. From time to time, the cats gradually lose the hairs of the old coat, and they are replaced by new wool. This process of rebirth occurs in pets every day.
2. An absolutely healthy cat loses its hair periodically, several times a year. In the spring, the molting process helps the animal to prepare for the summer period, having lost excess wool, it is ready for hot days. And in the autumn the reverse process, the animal increases the coat, preparing for the winter frost. With good pet care, the molting period is between one and two months. If the animals do not follow, then the process can be stretched.
3. The coat may lose its thickness in case of reduced immunity of the animal. This can happen after some kind of pet-borne illness, when his body needs the most beneficial elements. If you do not take certain measures, the animal will lose some of its wool.
4. Sometimes cats are allergic to certain types of foods,or they are affected by some irritating environmental factors, which lowers the production of immunity. As a result, the loss of hair occurs.
5. Not all pet owners provide them with a daily proper diet. An unbalanced diet is a shortage of nutrient minerals, which leads to the destruction of the hair follicles and loss of coat.
6. Loss of hair can occur due to the presence of skin fungi or parasites in the tailed pets. Under the influence of lashing and puffy eaters, dies of trichophytosis fungi and microsporia, cats quickly begin to lose their wool in huge quantities.
