 I hate to nit pick, but cats don't moult.  Birds moult

 Acutally, cats shed their skins every spring, as they outgrow their fur.  
The fur coat splits down the back and the cat crawls out with a beautiful 
shiny new coat.  the old coats are left behind where they are picked up and 
delivered to wall mart where they have cute little bunny heads attached and 
are sold as "slippers."
