How long will it take for Squishy to grow back the hair from her belly where they shaved it for her spay surgery? I like her little pink peach fuzzy belly but i miss her beautiful long hair? Its been a month now and it is just now starting to look like it is growing.

It takes a while. Don't be surprised if she gets itchy there too. Raven had his belly shaved for an ultrasound and his back where his tumor was...He always got itchy when the hair got to a certain length. Stimpy also got itchy with his shaved patch--he had a mole removed a couple years ago.

With spring coming, the coat should come in faster. I think during the fall/summer the coat doesn't grow as fast. I'm guessing by May she probably will have her coat back and look normal

Mittens was spayed in November. at the time she wasnt mine. she loves having her belly rubbed, & though her hair has grown back, you can still see the spot where it was shaved, bc the new hair isnt as long as the rest.

You guys will find this funny.
That's how I got to keep my kitty. She was a feral/stray
at my parents home and I took her to vet for shots, then
released her back outside at parents and scheduled spay.
After the belly shave, it was in March cold here in OHIO, I picked
her up, and by the way, she was already spayed,they discovered
scar after they but her under and shaved her.I brought her
home to my hubby, oh I can't put this poor kitty out in the cold
she has no hair on her belly.She has been in house ever since.
