If her coat goes out of condition then you might want to get her checked over, or take a fresh look at her diet. well he/she prolly has hycodefinisitemolen disorder just dont worry about it you kno my cat sheds.

If it is the same for your rat as it is for a dog, I would think that your rat is shedding because it is trying to lose the unecessary hair. Yes, it is summer and too hot for all that extra hair that used to keep your sweet pet warm in the winter. If you are really concerned, perhaps you should take them too the vet. They could have some sort of skin condition that is making their hair come out. Good-luck! Something is wrong with the rats they are not the kind of animals that shed but since its summer and its really hot it might. Rats aren't supposed to shed..most rodents aren't.
