I adopted four years old Sombra from a shelter 3 months ago. I was surprised that the first month she didn't shed any hair and I didn't even get any hairs when brushing her. But for the last month or so she is shedding very heavily although we are right in the middle of Winter here. I brush her every morning but before I do her hairs are "flying" all over the place. I get two brushes full at every morning brushing although she is short haired.
Sombra seems in excellent health and doesn't seem affected by this abundant shedding. She doesn't even scratch herself too frequently. I wonder whether the central heating system which is very high in this buiding could have something to do with it. Sometimes I have to turn the air conditioning on to cool down the atmosphere. I cannot open the windows for obvious reasons since my apartment is on a sixth floor.
As long as shedding heavily in Winter time is not unusual I can live with it.
