Information and advice on cats and what's the average of the common life of it?

 Unless you have the Pharaonic cat breed, you should take great care of hair loss in your pet cat. A bright, full and luxurious coat is a great sign of a healthy cat.  On the other hand, hair loss in cats can be just as painful and annoying as it is in humans.

 When you are a cat owner, you are accustomed to handling cat hair by using a lint roller to scrape them off your dark clothes, empty them from the sofa, and sometimes even grab them from your food.

 Unless you have a hairless cat breed like the Sphynx, there is a certain amount of natural hair loss that you should expect.  However, if your cat's hair is visibly thin, there are bald spots, or you notice inflamed and red areas, then there is a problem.

 When your cat loses more hair than usual, it causes you to experience so-called hair loss.

 Causes of hair loss in cats

 Common causes of cat hair loss can range from allergic reactions and hormonal imbalance to certain lesions or others.  Although the various causes are difficult to identify, most are easy to treat and prevent.  Here are some of the most common reasons for losing your cat's hair and what can be done about it.

 Hair loss due to sensitivity

 Like humans, cats can suffer from both environmental and food allergies.  This sensitivity is one of the main causes of alopecia areata in cats and can manifest as patchy hair loss and inflamed itch.  Determining the exact source of an allergic reaction can be difficult.  A veterinarian can perform a series of skin tests to determine the cause.

 You can also try to remove some objects from your cat's play area to see if that has any effect;  Or, slowly change the elements of your diet if you suspect a food-borne allergy.  In the case of environmental sources, your veterinarian may prescribe topical or general allergy medications and treatments.  If your cat is allergic to her food, she will need to change her diet throughout the week, so as not to upset her digestive system.  Cats are particularly susceptible to food allergies, and they may do well with foods that are less allergic.

 Hair loss due to fleas

 Cats are especially sensitive to fleas, and they may experience hair loss during an infestation.  It is not the fleas themselves that cause hair loss but their saliva.  For example, flea-based alopecia is especially pronounced as in unlimited hair loss in the cat's rear.

 Get rid of fleas with a course of shampoo and flea treatments.  You can also treat itching and hair loss with corticosteroids or antihistamines.  Prevent future flea outbreaks by applying regular monthly treatment.

 Ringworm as a cause of hair loss in cats

 Another common cause of feline hair loss is a fungal infection known as ringworm.  Ringworm, which spreads easily through contact with infected animals, makes adult cats' hair brittle and break up in spots.  In cats, you will see red areas on the face, ears, and paw pads, sometimes accompanied by white or gray scales.  Those cats who have tested positive for ringworm will be treated with antifungals, creams, sprays, or other medications after seeing the veterinarian.

 

 Thyroid disease as a cause of cat hair loss

 Cats can suffer from thyroid problems that cause an increase or decrease in thyroid hormone.  Hyperthyroidism in cats causes a lot of problems, including hair loss.  The hair can become very dull, brittle or thin, or it may be easily pulled out while you are caring for or brushing your teeth.  Once again, a trip to the vet is the only reliable way to determine thyroid disease.  Treatment for hyperthyroidism may include surgery or the use of radioactive iodine.

 Psychogenic dermatitis as a cause of hair loss in cats

 Some cats may suffer from alopecia due to excessive personal hygiene habits.  This condition is known as psychiatric dermatitis, and a cat may develop it if he was hit at the site of hair loss previously.

 Possible treatments for hair loss

 Effective flea repellent for cats suffering from hair loss due to parasites, which can be prepared from citrus fruits: Cut a lemon into quarters and place the pieces in a bowl of boiling water.  Then spray it over the entire cat, especially behind the ears, head, base of the tail, and in the arms.  Also, garlic, brewer's yeast tablets, and apple cider vinegar all work as an indoor flea repellant.  They all secrete odors or acids into the cat's skin, making it an unfriendly environment for fleas.

 Special solution

 A homemade spray called Pyrethrum can be made from dried African chrysanthemum heads that have been crushed into powder.  It is an organic and environmentally friendly insecticide proven to be safe for use on humans and animals.

 The African chrysanthemum flower is crushed and a handful of powder is placed in 1L of hot water for one hour.  Mix the mixture and pour into a spray bottle.  Spray all over the cat, taking care to avoid the eyes, mouth and inside the ears.

 Regular baths can help get rid of excess hair, but shampoo your cat with natural ingredients.  Catnip is a cleansing herb that has also been found to repel insects and kill their larvae.  Chamomile added to a cat's bath can help reduce dandruff and promote healthy skin, and a nettle coat can be used to encourage healthy skin and hair.

 If there are any behavioral reasons for your cat's hair loss, you will need evidence.  For example, if you notice warning signs that your cat is feeling anxious and anxious, be sure to keep a diary of the exact times and circumstances when licking and pulling hair occurs.  The vet will then decide whether you need to change something in your cat's environment or if she needs anti-anxiety medication.

 Preventing hair loss

 Diet can make a big difference in both preventing and treating hair loss in cats.  It is best to eat food rich in protein, preferably salmon or turkey.  This meat provides the most digestible protein to your cat.  It can also be a cat food supplement with vitamins E and B.

 Cats who spend time outdoors should be kept updated with all vaccinations.  Not only will this help prevent more serious, and sometimes fatal, diseases, but it will also prevent cats from contracting diseases that can be the root cause of hair loss.  Also keep them free of fleas and de-worms.  Hair loss in cats can be a sign of a number of different medical conditions.  Consult your veterinarian if you are not sure why her cat is losing her hair.
