My cat (still a Kitty) Mozart
is 7 months old and recently neutered. I have just noticed in the last day or so that it appears like he has looser skin on his under belly. I can't see it all the time. I notice it when he sits or lays a certain way. It almost looks like his skin/fur is bunching in folds near his hind legs. Is this because he is still growing and maybe his skin is growing first (or faster)? I noticed something similar once on another cat, but never found out the cause.

Should I be concerned or is it normal?

It's pretty normal. If you can do interactive play with him as he grows that will help his flabbiness. But it is pretty normal for males and females to have this.
