dandruff cat

Question
I have a black and white cat that is about 4 years old he has dandruff really bad and I was just wondering if you recommend anything I can use for his coat. I brush him weekly but he has this all year round.

Answer
Hi,

Your cat obviously has very dry skin. I suggest both a food higher in fat and possibly also a skin additive for his diet.  If he is eating a low fat food, that is not good for cats. What they, as well as we, need for good health, is low carbohydrate and higher fat.

Omega 3 and Omega 6 Fatty Acids/Supplements are the substances that are needed.

Good luck!
