In addition to the physiological hair loss of pets and the hair loss caused by skin diseases mentioned in the previous article, this article will give the shoveling officials a popular science of hair loss caused by other diseases and human factors, and the solutions are also ready for the shoveling officials!

Other diseases

Excluding skin factors, pets may also lose hair due to the outbreak of other diseases.

1 Malnutrition

When pets lack minerals and vitamins, their hair tends to lose its luster and fall off.

Hypothyroidism

Hypothyroidism in cats is accompanied by thinning of the coat and symmetrical depilation of the chest and abdomen.

Dogs have hypothyroidism, dry skin and hair, mild scratching, often beginning at the base of the tail and spreading; the coat falls off on both sides of the body; the coat is dull, dry, brittle, easy to pluck, and slow to grow.

Human factors

In fact, the shoveling officer himself is also one of the culprits of pet hair loss. I appeal to all shoveling officers not to do the following three things for the sake of pet health:

? 1 Human food for cats and dogs

Human food is too strong for cats and dogs. Cats and dogs with too much salt and spicy food are not only prone to hair loss, but also prone to kidney problems.

Use human bath products for cats and dogs.

Human skin is naturally weakly acidic, while cats and dogs are naturally weakly alkaline. Cats and dogs bathed with human toiletries are prone to itching and hair loss.

Take a bath too often

After frequent bathing, the alkaline balance of cats and dogs is destroyed, but a lot of hair loss occurs.

Other unexpected reasons

Cats and dogs have feelings of fear, nervousness and anxiety, which can also lead to hair loss.

The solution

The above is the truth of cat and dog hair loss, in addition to physiological hair loss, other reasons for hair loss should be treated as soon as possible.

So how to alleviate the phenomenon of cat and dog hair loss? Dr. E has sorted out some common knowledge points for you, which must be remembered:

1 Comb your hair regularly

Regular grooming of cats and dogs can not only clean up floating hair and reduce household cleaning, but also help to reduce the deposition of fur produced by normal metabolism and make the hair stronger and smoother.

Regular deworming

Against mites, fleas and other parasites, regular deworming is the only magic weapon. If it has caused a lot of hair loss in cats and dogs, it is recommended to go to the pet hospital for cause screening and then choose drugs.

3 Use Pet Professional Shower Gel

At present, there are special products for cats and dogs on the market, which can clean and nourish pet hair and prevent hair loss.

4. Choose hypoallergenic staple food

Do not feed dogs and cats human food. Cat food and dog food are the staple food that cats and dogs should eat, especially for sensitive and fragile skin, hypoallergenic formula food should be chosen.

5. Take a moderate bath

The correct frequency of washing cats should be once every three or four weeks in summer and once every five or six weeks in winter. The correct frequency of dog washing should be once every 7 to 10 days in summer and once every two weeks in winter.
