Cats will shed hairs approximately twice each year: Fall and Spring. In the fall, they shed their summer hair and there coats can take on a darker color. In the spring the opposite may happen.
Good periodic grooming of cats will help also. Most love to be brushed.

∙ 12y agoIf the cat is losing the entire claw, you need to take it to a veterinarian, it may have an infection or something. If it is just thin pieces of the claws, then that is normal. Cats shed the outer layer of their claws normally, to allow new, sharper layers of the claws to be used. That's why cats like to scratch on things like furniture; it removes the outer layer of the claws, as well as sharpening the layer being used.

What should you do if your guinea pig keeps losing fur behind its ear?
If your guinea pig is young, it is normal, since they are born with all of their fur and they would start to lose fur behind their ear as they age. For the past 8 years of having 4 guinea pigs, every single one lost hair from behind their ears as they aged. However, if your guinea pig is elderly, it could have mites and you should take it to the vet. 1-4 months is a good age to reassure yourself that losing ear hair is a normal way of a cavy's (guinea pig's) life.
