it's me again- this really seems like shedding that is not normal. I just gave her a bath and brush out and hair was almost coming out in clumps (not quite clumps, but ALMOST.......). Any ideas??? Could it be the food or something like that? I know some animals are super sensitive to things. It is especially strange because she did not really shed much at all until just lately, and now there is black hair everywhere. I am vacuming and sweeping 2-3 times a day, and it is still not enough. Time for a vet visit?
