My two year old mother cat recently developed hair loss starting at the tip of her ears and is working its way down. She also seems to be squinting and her eyes look like they are irritating her. Also, she just looks rough in the face, but other than that she seems fine. She is an indoor cat and the only interaction is with her two offspring, both female also. Any suggestions? Thank you.

This mat caught my eye because of its size and texture, which traps fine litter rather well. It's large enough for jumbo litterboxes, which is also a plus. It's not quite as easy to clean as a...

This scoop was a freebie with some clumping litter I bought last year, and I like it so much that I've bought a second one. It's perfect for fine clumping litter, which it sifts very thoroughly....

Hi, Scomoh! Welcome to TCS! 
If this was just fur-related, I'd attribute it to a possible allergy and query what you were feeding (kibble provokes allergies more often than canned), but because her eyes are also involved, I'd really urge you to go to a vet. I have no idea what would affect both eyes and fur, and you just don't want to mess around with eye issues.
Hope the diagnosis is easy to find and easy to treat!
