Angel may be over grooming and by excessively licking her fur the hair breaks off. Have her examined by your veterinarian to make sure she is not suffering from lice or fungus or other skin disease. Very nervous or stressed kitties often over groom. You can get some Feliway dispensers for your house and try to figure out what stresses her out and then remove the cause for the stress. This may stop the over grooming.,
