How much is too much molting???? He seems to be making minature fluff bunnies in the corners...
is this even the right time of year to molt? is he growing a winter coat or loosing fluff to get a summer coat?
im brushing him every other day and getting out a handful each time as well as the fluff hes distributing around the kitchen....
He seems well in himself...
 
If he's indoors then I don't think the normal seasons apply, they can moult any time. If he were outdoors then it would not be a good time of year to be moulting. As long as his coat and skin seems otherwise healthy and there are no bald patches then I wouldn't be concerned.
 
oh no, perfectly healthy... just lots and lots of little baby 'dust bunnies' in all the corners of my kitchen. :roll: I keep telling him he will look silly bald... but he doesn't listen. he'll get fur-balls at this rate.
 
Pipkin has awful moults. One day I brushed out a pile of fur that was the same size as him. I had a picture but it was on a phone that I lost :(
It's really quite unbelievable how much fur there can be...
He should be fine if he's indoors. :)
