Abstract
Skin physiology in cats has received little attention. The aim of this study was to evaluate the long‐term influence of sex, time and the level of dietary fat and energy on the dynamics and qualities of the hair coat. Twenty‐four European short‐haired laboratory cats were followed over a 1‐year period. They were divided into eight groups of three, according to: sex (12 males and 12 females), sexual status (intact or neutered) and diets [(high energy 4300 kcal/kg as fed, 21% fat) vs. (moderate energy 3500 kcal/kg as fed, 10% fat)]. Both diets were fed for 6 months to all cats following a cross‐over design. The following parameters were evaluated throughout the study: thickness of hair coat and hair lengths (neck, rump, lateral, flank), hair regrowth (after periodic clippings of 25 cm2 areas), and telogen/anagen ratio. The thickness of the hair coat initially varied from 1.2–1.7 cm on the neck, 1–1.4 cm on the rump, 1.8–2.5 cm on the flank, and hair shaft lengths were 1.7–2.5, 3.7–3.9 and 2.5–3.2 cm, respectively. Comparison of values revealed few statistical differences: increase of the thickness of hair coat in neutered cats (male and female) during the study, and increase of the length of lateral hairs in all groups during the study. Over all periods and in all groups, the curve of growth was similar (rapid then slower). Some transient variations were attributed to temporary changes in ambient conditions. In conclusion, neither sex, nutrition or season (in housed cats) influenced the general quality of hair coat, in particular hair regrowth. Funding: Royal Canin.
