7 month old kitten SHEDDING!

Hi!

So, my (almost, officially on Feb. 6th) 7-month-old girl Lulu never really shed at all from the moment I brought her home at 6 weeks old. But, I have noticed the past week that she has been shedding a TON all of a sudden. She sleeps with us in our bed- usually on one of our pillows, and they are all suddenly covered in hair....same with our sheets. Earlier tonight I looked down at the black tank top I was wearing, and it was COVERED in hair!! So, I decided to brush her for a bit, and the brush filled up with hair multiple times. So crazy. To give you guys an idea of how easily she is shedding:  If I pinch a tiny bit of her fur and pull gently, the hair will come out.

I did a bit of research online, and I read that kittens shed their "baby fur" around 6 months, and that they then grow in their "adult coat". I guess this is probably why?

I also would like to get other opinions and am wondering if anyone else has experienced this, or has any additional info. Thanks in advance!!

FYI -- I just started feeding her raw a few weeks ago. Not sure if it has anything to do with it but I know that it's supposed to prevent shedding, if anything.

Do you brush her daily?  That might help.

Hi mine is about that age and for the last few weeks shedding a lot - I've read they get their adult hair at this time - I just hope it ends when it's done.
