White cats shedding too much do I need coat food. Pet's info: Cat | Mixed Breed | Female | 8 lbs

Dr. Massimo Orioles, DVM, Cert AVP, MRCVS · Accepted Answer

Cats can lose hair for multiple different reasons. Some reasons include poor diet, parasites (fleas/mites), infection (bacteria, yeast), or metabolic problem. You will need to talk to your veterinarian about finding the cause so that you can get her on the right treatement. In my experience it is unlikely that the food will help with the shedding problem, although omega 3 supplement will help maintaining what is left in good condition.
