Hi, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! A lot of cats have the extra skin that hangs on their belly. Most cats that have this are older than Noushi and have already been spayed or neutered. I think what you are referring to is normal but if you want to post a picture I'd be happy to look. Have a great day!
