Does cat's fur grow back at a different rate when it is shaved..
depending on the area? My Yuri had his tummy shaved for surgery,then
had various other areas shaved as he required other procedures. Except for his tummy, the fur is growing back nicely. On his stomach it has barely grown in at all. His surgery was 2 months ago. I have one of his littermates, and he has a fairly good amount of fur on his stomach so it is not only location! |

I have heard that the fur will grow back at different rates depending on the
area. But I also read somewhere that stomach fur grows back faster than some other areas. So I don't know. When my cat had surgery his whole backside had to be shaved. It took a good 6 months before it finally got to the point that you couldn't see the line between the new fur and the old fur. Now the only difference is that the new fur is a little darker in color than the old fur (my cat is grey and white). "Lucrezia Borgia" wrote in message oups.com... depending on the area?
