August 2008 (2 years 3 months old) - 8lb at vets scales
The kitties have been eating the same food for a long time, but I don't know how much she eats since they all share a bowl.
She's always been long and lean - I can feel her spine fairly easily when I pat her, and looking from above, she has a really skinny waist.
The vet said it could be a difference in scales (I changed vets since last year), or she may have just used the litter tray before she came this time, but not last time.
She seems healthy otherwise, but I know weight loss can be the first sign of many things, and I don't know if I'm quite comfortable with just assuming it's probably nothing. I don't think it's stress - we have had foster kittens, but she's actually been more affectionate with us the last couple of months.
Is there anything else in particular I should watch out for in case it is something to worry about?
