She eats Blue buffalo and I hear its pretty good.What kind of food is she eating? Some of the cheap grainy foods like cat chow or meow mix can cause dandruff and greasy coat like that.
She is only 5 but maybe I should still add fish oil? I could definitely give it a try.Is she an older kitty? Max got dandruff when he was a senior as his skin stopped producing oils. His fur also separated and matted. If I had known then what I know now, I would have tried to add some fish oil to his diet.

I’ve also noticed it during the winter a little more. Our guys eat only wet food, so I didn’t think it was likely caused by the food.
Hopefully someone has suggestions to have less dandruff, I’d be interested to now if there was something to be done about it.

I’ll have to remember that, although I hope I never have another diabetic cat!Have you had a full blood work up recently and checked blood glucose? My cat is currently in remission but when her diabetes was first diagnosed she had horrible dandruff like that.
I discovered that site only a few weeks before Max crossed the Bridge at age 20 in 2017. But in those few weeks, they provided incredible support. Max and I both would have had an easier time of it had I known about the site in 2013 when he was diagnosed.Are you also a member of the feline diabetic support group? They helped me so much!

My sisters cat hasn’t been checked by a vet in awhile. I may suggest a visit then. My sister thinks dHave you had a full blood work up recently and checked blood glucose? My cat is currently in remission but when her diabetes was first diagnosed she had horrible dandruff like that.
