Cat dandruff is a topic that I’ve heard of too many times. It’s a problem that affects most of us cat owners, and if you own a cat, you’ll have to deal with it sooner or later
But fear not, there is a home remedy for cat dandruff that you can use without burning a hole in your wallet, just by looking at the symptoms and environment and taking action based on these symptoms.

This is what I got from the excellent website on cat dandruff…
The majority of cat dandruff problems have in common three factors:
The cat dandruff is on the rump or tail and your cat is ageing or over-weight
If your pet is overweight or has gained weight suddenly and dandruff on her rump and tail, it’s a clear sign that she’s not able to reach these areas to clean herself. This is also a problem for older cats that lack the mobility to groom themselves.
Simply brush you cat and I suggest you groom her every two months. If you decide to bathe your cat, please avoid using human shampoos as that might dry her skin further and exacerbate the condition. Always use a cat shampoo and don’t forget to clean thoroughly as remaining shampoo stuck on her undercoat may only make matters worse.
Winter dandruff
Simply move her away from the fireplace regularly and observe if the problem persists. Having a humidifier would be a good idea, both for your pet and also yourself (humans get dry skin too…)
None of the above apply, is there anything else?
If your pet still has cat dandruff problems, just think, have you bought any new furniture lately? A new rug maybe? See if there has been any changes to her surroundings that she might be affected by and try to make the necessary adjustments.
If all the above tips still don’t work, don’t worry, check out other cat dandruff solutions.
