I have a couple of questions....
1) I notice that my cats have been shedding more fur this month. Is it because of the hot weather? Because Im giving the same type of food and nothing's changed.
2) I recently spayed my persian cat and eversince the operation, she's become grumpy and moody. She hates being around her kittens and would smack them if they get too near. I've tried to make her happy, play with her and give her extra treats. But she's still grumpy. When she's alone and the kittens are not around, than she'll be the most manja cat like she use to be before. What should I do?
3) My mum's cat who's 12 years old has been losing weight but has been eating a lot. Is this normal for mature cats?

For your information, long haired cats will tend to shed a few times in a year. Also when stressed cats will also tend to shed their fur so you will need to determine the root of the problem. Maybe you need to give your cat some supplement for the fur e.g. brewster yeast, salmon oil
I think it takes time for your female cat to adjust after being spayed as her hormons are not stable yet. I noticed that my male cat is also like that but after a month, he became the most super duper manja cat. Give her some time. Maybe also she has lost the sense of smell of her kittens and thinks they are new comers to the house and therefore acts hostile to them.
As for your mum's cat its not normal so better bring it to the vet for immediate check up.
