I was surprised when I adopted Sombra last May that she did not shed at all and didn't even leave "hairs" in the brush when brushing her. I hadn't had any experience with a short hair diluted tortie and thought perhaps the autumn season had something to do with it. I stopped brushing her since she didn't like it and it didn't seem necessary.
To my surprise today, two and a half months later in the middle of the Winter season, for the first time I found sheddings on my computer where she had been laying. I then brushed her and I very quickly filled two brushes with her fur. She is being fed with the food she was used to in the shelter and which had been recommended to me as being the best i.e. Purina's Excellence.
Sombra is fine, eats, drinks and uses her litterbox normally. I am not at all worried about her but I would like to know if it is normal for some cats to stop shedding for a period of time
and start shedding again in plein winter time.
