    Hi, I have a long-hair cat and she has terrible dandruff. Unfortunately it gets caught in her fur and quickly gets matted. I was wondering if there was something I could add to her diet so her skin wouldn't be so dry. Any suggestions?

    She REFUSES to let me comb her so that is not an option. :(

    Thanks!

    What type of food are you feeding the cat? Wet? Dry? What are the main ingredients?

    Sometime switching to a high quality wet food can really change the health status of a cat!

    I have one cat that HATES to be brushed, so I started to use a soft bristled hair brush on him, and he seems to like that. I also wash him with a wet sponge along his body to clean his coat. He gets matted fur along his bottom because his hair is so long.
