The ex-Red returns to Anfield with new club Manchester City on Sunday and Kuyt has praised his former team-mate.
"We all know about Bellamy because he played for Liverpool. He's a good player and is doing very well at the moment," said the Dutchman.
"He's difficult to play against because he has a lot of qualities. He's really quick but can also finish. Maybe people haven't seen him as much over the last three years but we've seen recently how good he is."
