Kitten Fur & Skin


It's important to pay attention to your feline friend's fur and skin to ensure it is healthy and to identify any potential issues.

A healthy kitten should have a soft and shiny coat which is free of tangles and knots. The fur should be even and should not have bald patches or discolouration. The skin should be smooth and supple, with no signs of redness, scaling, or sores. In addition, the fur should be free of dirt, fleas, and parasites. 

If your cat’s fur and skin are not healthy, you may notice signs such as dandruff, bald patches, flaky skin, or scabs. All of these signs can indicate a variety of underlying skin issues such as allergies, parasites, or infections.

In addition, a cat with an unhealthy coat will also be more prone to parasites and other skin diseases. T If you notice any signs of an unhealthy coat, it is important to seek veterinary advice as soon as possible. Your vet can provide a diagnosis and recommend treatment, which may include medicated shampoos, skin medications, or even a change in diet.

Regular grooming and brushing can help to keep your cat’s fur and skin healthy, as well as preventing the build-up of dirt, parasites, and other skin issues.
