My new cat Bond has a green line on his belly where he has also been shaved. Anyone know what this is?
Bond's tatoo looks exactly like that. He was squirmy when I took it (doesn't like to be held yet).One week for a tattoo to be raised and scabby is just about right. It should be healed right up and not feel like anything in another week (give or take a little). Both of my boys have the exact same mark and it's visible on both a white and black belly when those areas are shaved. I also wasn't told, I think because it's such a little thing really and don't the hair grows back you'd never know it was there. Ironically, my female who has not outward sign of being spayed is the one without a tattoo because she was spayed at our regular vet instead of a clinic and a lot of private vets don't do tattoos.
You can just make out Nightfurys tattoo this photo and he was neutered over 6 years before the photo was taken. His tummy was shaved for an ultrasound and I couldn't resist memorializing the bare tummy.
