Cat losing way too many fur

In the past two weeks my 6 months kitten starting losing way too many fur.

She still doesn't have blank spots on her the ,main problem is that it is being really bad for us  once our house is currently covered cat hair. 

We brush her but it seems not much effective and she seems to be in pain so I don't know if does it worth: you cannot touch her legs that you will get many on your hand doesn't matter when, even after brushing. 

The vet said that it is normal at her age to change the fur and recommended to change her diet, which was not effective. 

I was thinking about stress, but she does not lick her self all the time ti induce the fur to fall. 

She is a medium hair kitten, definitively not a long hair one. 

As this is our first kitten, I would like to know by your experience if is this a common situation, how long will it last and how to improve that. 

So, basically, she is shedding, which is typical of cats.  Most cats do it, ALL the time.  Some times are worse than others, but it's pretty much a daily occurence. 

Brushing helps, and the type of brush matter greatly, depending on her coat.  I have one cat on whom I use a Zoom Groom.  It works really well for him, but doesn't work too well on the others.  I've found that on my longer,thick haired cats using a comb actually works much better than using a brush.  What you need to to,howeer, no matter what tool you use, is make sure you are getting down to the undercoat and removing all the lose fur.

Diet DOES play a part in shedding.  What are you feeding your little one.   You need something that is high in fatty acids.  Otherwise, you can add in some good Omega 3s.  Here is an old thread, but it might be helpful:  http://www.thecatsite.com/t/107450/shedding-and-diet  Anytime you change food, you need to give it time to work.  I would think at least a few weeks, if not several. 

As far as your kitten seeming to be in pain when you brush her, this is probably not so, but more likely she just isn't used to it.  Most cats don't like having their legs and feet bothered with.  Is that the only place she doesn't like touched, or her entire body?  As with anything in a cat's world, you need to go slowly, and take it at their pace.  comb a little, give a treat, give a rest, comb a little, give a treat, give a rest.  Here's a thread that might help with the whole brushing thing:  http://www.thecatsite.com/t/313625/brush-for-cat-with-sensitive-skin

hey, sorry I didn't reply earlier, one week ago Lili got a severe eye infection, she was really bad, for this reason I was not worried about shedding... thankfully she is ok now...

going back to the shedding and hair loss, the vet recommended a specific meal some weeks ago, however it did not seem to improve... last week he recommended a shampoo for dry skin, it is helping a little but not a lot...

he also mentioned the possibility of shearing her. Do you guys use to do that? I am currently in Brazil, so summer time, you can imagine how hot it is... 

Some people actually DO have their cats shaved for the warm months to cut down on shedding.   I've never done it,but know of people who have.  They usually do a "lion" cut.  Does your cat go outside?  Fur is a natural insulator though, and also help them from getting sunburned.  So...it's a catch 22.

Thanks for the help!

We live on a apartment, so she only goes outside on the balcony
after


So win win... 

thanks once more for the hints
