Kitty skin condition question
Hi. Last December we adopted Callie, a three year old female DSH from the local animal services people. She had been in their care for about three months. The vet said she was healthy and she certainly seems to be to us. Until now, we have never noticed any skin flakes (looks like dandruff) while petting or brushing her. We like to brush her every few days with a soft hair brush whether she needs it or not and she likes it too. Lately we have begun to see what looks like dead skin flakes in her fur as we pet or brush her. The temperature is warmer now and she is definitely shedding more. Is this flaking normal or should we be doing something to help alleviate this? She is not in any discomfort that we can see. Food is dry only, she just sniffs at wet, at least the last time we tried it with her. She gets a 50/50 mix of Science Diet (currently Adult Light) and Nutro Natural Choice Complete Care Adult. TIA for any thoughts on this one. Rolf. -- To email, remove 'garbage' from address. |
