I am sure due to the really cold winter we had, Merlins coat was much thicker than normal, he is not one for having his backend groomed, today I noticed a mat at the back, only way to get it out was to cut it out...In all the years I have had him, first time that has happened...
Has anyone else noticed a difference in their cats coats...?

Mr Tosmk lived outside all winter ( or in my steading) and he has a massively thick coat, all the others were inside so have normal coats.

Leia is indoors so she doesn't grow a Winter coat; she does seem to be shedding quite a bit more than usual during our heat wave. 3 combsful of fur a night instead if the usual 2.

I haven't noticed any difference, but only had Kizzy just over a year and Pip has his adult coat instead of his kitten one, so too early to tell with my two.

No but Charlie's is really shedding more than usual this year.

Myshka's produced 2 furballs in 3 days (normally one every 6 months) and both Fifi and Balie are leaving tufts everywhere.

Fifi seems to be loosing fur by the handful - but that's another story, something's not right and we're off the the vet tomorrow if I can get an appt.l
