I have two Siamese baby kittens. They are 4 weeks old and I have noticed that their bellys sag down quite a bit. OK not the whole belly more toward their rear end. It feels like fat and looks like they have alot of loose skin there. It's only very noticable when they are standing on all 4's. It seems as if I noticed that the mom also had a tummy like this when she was younger. I was wondering if it is a cause for concern or if that is just normal? They are starting to get very active and playful. And they act and look otherwise perfect. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks so much.

It is normal, don't worry. My last litter all had saggy soft bellys, like pouches towards the back legs.

Singa has that too! She's my little pot-bellied-kitty

Ok she may not win a prize on the catwalk, but I think it's cute
