A lot of dandruff is not normal. This could be a sign of bad quality cat food and because of it a lack of vitamins and minerals, diabetes, or parasites. Make sure you feed a good quality cat food from a reputable brand. If the fur quality does not improve, ie the dandruff disappears, you should take Amora to a veterinarian for an exam.
