What to feed a cat whose hair and skin seem a bit dry?

I have a six-year-old female cat. Spayed. Her hair and skin feel drier than my other three cats' does.

She will eat ONLY dry food. The others eat a combination of

canned and dry. She drinks as much water as the others do.

She is not losing her hair at all, and does not have any rashes or bare spots. Her hair is very thick, all over - just dry.

She does not appear to be ill in any way.

Should I put a little vegetable oil on her dry food?

I'd rather treat her from the inside (via diet) than apply something to her fur from the outside.

Any suggestions?

It could be the time of year if you are running heat in your house. My cat gets a little more dander than usual in the colder months. You could add water to the air in your house by running either a vaporizor or a humidifier. Also some cats are just softer than others like people they are all different.
