The abused persian kitten I'm about to adopt has lost large amounts of fur. Will it grow back?
I’m adopting an abandoned and abused persian kitten. But I noticed that the kitten was almost bald. I’m concerned if it will grow back again…She’s such a cutie, how could anyone abandon her =(
Oh..she’s 3 weeks old.

Hi,
If this kitten was abandoned by a humans, I can’t for the life of me understand how could anyone do this to a kitten? It just makes my blood boil!
This is a very young kitten and needs lots of special care. She is probably not old enough to eat on her own, or use a litter box. This is an orphan kitten and needs special care.
Rather than writing a long list of what you need to do, I am giving you a link to help you with her.

You should also take her to your veterinarian to make sure she is healthy and can be hand-raised. Sometimes mother cats abandon their kittens if the kitten is not healthy. So she may not have been abused, but her mother abandoned her for some reason that you need to check out.
Hope the article helps, and yes, her hair will grow back when she is in better health. Right now she needs veterinary attention and LOTS of tender loving and consistent care on your part.
You will be having a few weeks or rather sleepless nights in feeding and helping her eliminate, but within a month or so, she should be well on to being easier to care for.
Good luck with your baby, and thanks for rescuing her.

It depends what happened to it, I think it should though, you could ask the vet and get their opinion
She is going to need constant care and attention at three weeks old, its way to young to be away from mum, sad that someone would abandon her like that. Good luck restoring her to full health
yes, The fur will grow back soon if you feed it healthy foods and love it alot.
