Hello, I am Melon Coffee.
Cats, like humans, have cell changes in their skin, and in the case of cats, cell replacement takes place once every seven years.
Old cells fall off, new cells fill the spot, and it’s natural for these old cells to form dandruff.
However, if you have a lot of dandruff or itching, you should check for skin diseases or other diseases.
If your skin is swollen red or losing hair, biting and scratching your body, it’s likely to be a skin disease, parasite, infection or allergy.
Also, if itching is severe, the cat can scratch the area and get hurt.
