== == Humans hair moults to a certain degree as well. Hair replaces hair and cats or most dogs are no different. Cats usually will constantly groom themselves (the longer the hair the more they will groom themselves) and do this with their tongue (it's rough and will pick up the hair, thus, sometimes your cat will get hairballs and gag them up. You can always brush your cat on a daily basis as well. To groom longer haired cats lift the fur away from you (don't pull) then stroke downward with the brush towards the skin (gently.) Brushing will help this process. I recommend purchasing a Furminator brush (eBay will have them way cheaper than pet stores) This brush really does work and has eliminated my cat and dogs shedding almost completely. Cats usually shed more heavily during season changes, but they could also shed heavily if they have a vitamin deficiency. You can go to a pet store and buy liquid vitamins (such as Vitacoat) that provide them with Omega 3 and Omega 6 or similar fatty acids. Try brushing your cat to help shed the coat faster, or use wipes to catch the excess hair. If it becomes a problem on furniture, cover it up with a throw and then wash that periodically (instead of lint brushing the entire couch/chair/etc).

Do chickens have to molt to lay eggs?
No. Actually it is the opposite. Chickens stop or at least slow egg laying when they go into a moult. Moulting is a renewal of feathers and the chicken puts much of its nutrition and energies into making new feathers during this time. Moulting takes place usually months after the hens start to first lay eggs. She will reduce her egg laying for the time she is moulting.
