I agree with the other post. As far as her backside, she may just twitch because of nerve endings. Cats are so sensitive to touch it may tickle a bit. I wouldn't worry about it unless she starts walking funny or stops wanting to jump, etc. If you want to help cut down on the dander and any smell, you might try PETfection Deodorizer/Allergy Spray. It is 100% Organic and Non-Toxic. You can spray it on her butt end daily to help moisturize her skin and fur and get rid of any smell. Hope this helps; good luck!

Your torty is different colors. If she (oh all tricolored cats are female 99.9% of the time). The dark pads are dark for the same reason there are dark spots in her fur. Its just pigment. No worrys. Brush her often to remove dead hair which can lead to matts. Matts cut off air from the skin and may even hold moisture from her attempts at cleaning. The dandruff is actually dead skin cells. If matting continues abscesses may occur. Brush untill you can easily part the hair and see her skin. Severe matting may require a professional groomer to remove. Them safely. But they gotta go. Sounds like a long haired cat but a fat short haired cat can't always touch his toes. Diet is important. Put your cat on a high quality food made to provide optimal nutrition while helping her loose excess wieght. Visit the Science Diet web site for more info on the benefits of good nutrition I don't work for them and they arnt the only makers of premium foodsbut they know their stuff
