Shedding is a cat's natural process of losing dead hair. You could regularly brush and groom her may help. Excessive shedding can be a sign of disease so you could have her examined by your vet to make sure there isn't a medical problem. You could also add an omega 3 fatty acid supplement to her diet, like Free From Snip Tips, to see if that helps.
