They're both very cool despite being a bit chubby. Our puss, Charlie, was looking a bit hefty at 12 pounds (she's got a small-ish build) so we have been regulating her food. As of last night she's lost 14 ounces in just under a month. Pretty darn good and on her way to being svelte once again. :)
When they get so big you think you're going to dislocate something lifting 'em, you know it's time for le diet, and yours both look that way to me, or mighty close to it. Happy, well-fed, and doted on, not a doubt of it, but not good for pets OR people! They do have special diets for cats, just like for us'n's, you know.
Hey,it's snowing out there!
ReplyDeleteSo if you think we have tropical temps at my place, what are you guys at?
Cats on diets. Pffffft. Cleo puts on weight every winter and then works it off exploring and chasing birds the rest of the year.

ReplyDeleteHehe. Our cat (Couscous) is on a diet too!

ReplyDeleteSpike weighed in with the vet at about 20 pounds and she made it clear that it is time for a CHANGE!
ReplyDeleteDiets make not a happy cat. Good luck with that!
ReplyDeleteSpike and Maria Osmond are on diets.
ReplyDeleteBut it's winter! They're what Garrison Keiller refers to as "heater cats". The extra girth benefits whomever's lap they choose to sit on.
ReplyDeleteI like these pictures because you can see the difference between the makerel tabby markings (Spike's) and the tortise shell ones (Emily).
Those two chubby cats are perfect.
