My female Persian kitten(50 days old) is shedding a lot of hair suddenly, after her first deworming, is it something to be concerned about?(not sure if this happened due to deworming) She is perfectly normal, she eats well, her digestion is good and she is very active
Dr. Sharmila Rai
Hi Chaitra! If there is no bald patches due to to the hairloss and as you are saying she is otherwise normal, it can be due to the seasonal changes. As cats tend to shed more during summer. But if it continues and gets bald patches or rashes in the body you can schedule a vet visit.
Dr. Sharmila Rai
And do check for any flea or ticks that can also cause hairfall. In that case spot on medication can be used but she have to be 2 month or above for using that.

Thanks doc! I did schedule a vet visit from Kuddle and found out she has a deficiency and hence the hair loss. We are giving her supplements now

Hi!
A few days back I observed a small bald patch above one eye of my female lab and got her vet consulted. The vet overruled bacterial, fungal or any other infection. But I did observe another one today on one of her arm. This one is small too with no redness. She had itching issues but after the medicine prescribed by the vet it's better now. Any suggestions on what could be the underlying reason for bald patches would be relieving.1 likes•19 comments•130 views
