Why is my cat shedding so much fur? Is it normal and what to do?

Question

Hi, my 1 year old male cat is shedding a lot of fur since few months. He's neutered and i brush him quiet sometime, but the amount of fur that stuck to the brush worries me badly. I have consulted the vet, he said regular deworming would help, but nothing is helping. I'm worried because wherever he sits, the place is full of fur. I have been feeding him good cat food throughout. He's absolutely fit except the fact he's shedding way too much. What should be done?

Shedding is a normal process. So many people are so worried about shedding and I don't really understand why. Unless there are bald spots where the hair used to be I would not be worried. Just brush him daily as you have been and only be concerned if you are seeing bald patches. You can also start him on a coat supplement like fish oil that may help.
