All cats lose their hair at some point. Shedding is a normal process in cats and part of their natural growth cycle.

Some cats may lose more hair during shedding periods, especially in spring. Please note that some felines lose less than others. What are the breeds of cats that shed the least? Contact your veterinarian before starting to adopt a cat to give their advice on the breed of cat that will suit you best. Adopting an animal commits you, it is a decision that you will have to think carefully about before making it a decision about a cat you want to keep.
