I think you're talking about dandruff, not dander....you can't see dander. Are you bathing her EVERY week? If so, that's really too often, and could be leading to dry skin, which could be leading to the dandruff. I would just brush her a lot, and bathe no more often than once a month, if you must bathe her. I've never bathed my cats, it's really not necessary. Frequent brushing is a very good thing, though. It stimulates the skin to produce more natural oils, which can clear up dry skin and dandruff.
