How to Help Your Cat Shed Less

Part of caring for your cat is knowing their behaviors and habits. This helps you understand when something they’re doing or experiencing is normal or concerning.

Keeping an eye on their shedding cycles can help you understand their well-being quite a lot.

There are a few ways you can help your cat shed less hair if you’re concerned for their wellbeing or just tired of vacuuming up strands from the carpet daily.

You are what you eat, and so is your cat. So, the first step in helping your cat in any way is making sure they are getting the required nutrients they need.

Grooming

Brushing your feline’s coat regularly with one of the best cat brushes will help their shedding fur from getting all over the house.

Long-haired cats need their fur to be run through a grooming brush at least a few times a day. Depending on the breed, they can require a daily brush.
