Dandruff in cats can be caused by a variety of factors, including dry skin, allergies, poor diet, or an underlying medical problem. Here are some general tips to help you combat cat dandruff:
- Groom regularly: Brush your cat regularly to remove loose hair. Use a cat brush that is appropriate for your cat’s coat type.
- Balance his diet: Make sure your cat eats a well-balanced and nutritious diet. Sometimes nutritional deficiencies can contribute to skin problems, including deficiencies in B vitamins, essential amino acids, and essential fatty acids.
- Offer him a complementary food: your veterinarian can recommend nutritional solutions that provide essential nutrients for healthy skin and a healthy coat. Treatsy Skin & Coat in the form of treats is specially formulated to provide the right nutrients essential to strengthening the skin barrier, the elasticity of the skin and the beauty of the coat. There is also a Treatsy Skin & Coat functional oil, which contains a blend of natural oils very rich in Omega-3, to help replenish the epidermis and obtain a perfect coat.
- Identify and manage allergens: be vigilant and identify all potential allergens in your cat’s environment, such as certain types of litter, cleaning products, the appearance of parasites, the introduction of a new food, etc. If you think you have identified the culprit, move it away or remove it from your cat’s environment. Consult your veterinarian and share this information with them.
- Consult your veterinarian: If dandruff persists or worsens, it is important to consult your veterinarian. They can help determine the underlying cause and recommend appropriate treatment: shampoos, topical treatments, medications, complementary foods, etc.
