is a North American Fat Hair. He absorbs fat particles from the air and simply balloons out. The Holstein cow design on his fur certainly isn't helping him either. All the other cats are making fat jokes. He looks like a soccer ball with legs.
 
He'll need to lose weight or he will die sooner.

Get that cat to the gym! ;)
 
We got him enrolled, but he says he never has anytime to go. He is too busy trying to kill the plants and scare the shit out of all the other cats.


Some people may not like fat humans, but one thing is for sure, they never fall on your face in the middle of the night.
 
lol,thats true.

I cant stand it when they crawl up near your face and fart.

Mine are those cats that never put on weight. You know the slinky ones?

Makes me sick...;)
 
How about a low-calorie food? I had an extremely active cat, who spent her days outside romping and chasing my bunny...since we've moved into the city, she can't go outside and has started to plump up a little, I put her on a low-cal diet...and she's back to her normal size.

Consult your vet.

Good luck!
 
Oh my gawd!

Thats my cat!

She died of old age and it was years before I got another animal.

I miss Lucky,she was my baby. She never left my bedroom. She would either lay on my bed,or under it if the kids were around.

But she was the only one that I ever saw have those kind of colors.
 
Hey there isnt anything wrong with a rubenesque Kitte..I mean Cat.*pout*
 
We have multiple kitties but only one of them is extra large. Macavity is a mixed breed (a stray) with long hair and he has gotten so fat he can't groom himself back by his tail (we have to help with brushes and clippers - lol)

How can you keep one kitty on a diet and still allow the others to eat??? We leave science diet out all day for the cats to eat whenever they choose. Mac is very active, still romping and chasing the others (who are very slinky) so we really have trouble figuring out why he is packing on the pounds. Vet says he's fine, but we don't like his idea of feeding Mac separately.

Any ideas??

Oh - I love Ginny's picture! If that kitty were black and silver, it would be our Mac (complete with the grin)
