Marlee does! On her belly where she got spayed, she has a little line of a really pretty aqua color. When I picked her up from the shelter, her belly had a lot of aqua colored hair/skin around the area where she got spayed. (I guess it was whatever kind of antiseptic or something that the vet used.) I obviously had to wait til she got her stitches out to give her a bath and I thought it would go away. Well, most of it did, but shes got an aqua scar! It may fade as she gets older, who knows. Just curious if anyone else's kitty has anything like this?

That's interesting.

About tattoos on animals, do they really fade after time? I heard it was the reason why tattooing was replaced by snipping the ear for marking TNR cats.

I don't know about the fading, I was just thinking it might.....So it may have been done on purpose? I just assumed it was an accident!
