My cat was originally a stray and was very skinny when we found him. We then got him fixed and ever since then he has gained a lot of weight. He seems to eat food for comfort or when he is happy (he wants to eat after we pet him, which is a lot of the time)
Anyways we have 3 other healthy sized cats which is why it is hard to put him on a diet. We have tried science diet weight control for all of the cats but it doesn't seem to really help, is there any way to keep him from eating without depriving the other cats of the food we leave out? We can't watch him 24/7.
We have also tried exercising him with a laser pointer and his favorite toy stick thing but it doesn't seem to help. When we took him to the vet for his last shots the doctor didn't say anything about his weight but he is about 25 pounds now. What can I do that will actually work to help him lose weight?
