I can't believe someone would let their cat get that fat. That should be considered a form of animal cruelty. Poor thing...

yes it is quite cruel, because the cat wont be able to do half the things it could do

but the owners probably didnt do it on purpose, to intentially make the cat that fat

How sad. It disgusts me the amount of owners that allow their animals to get so obese. Then the animal has all sorts of problems -- hip/back problems, diabetes, etc. Then the animal must go through all the treatment. If they would have just keep them healthy the animal wouldn't have to go through it all and they would save themselves a lot of money.

And it's stupid people who would actually TRY to make their pet obese that is the reason why Guinness no longer keeps a record for highest weight for an animal. Now they measure the length, height, etc. to ensure that the animal that hold the Largest (cat, dog, etc.) record is healthy.

How very sad. I wonder how old the cat is?

And I just have to ask... Can you imagine what snuggling with that cat would be like?

Poor baby. It must be miserable to have to carry all that weight around. Shame on his guardian!

I had a "friend" who's family allowed their cat to become as obese as that poor cat. Their reasoning was that the cat was diabetic (of course!) and already was pretty miserable, they couldn't stand to make him want for food since that would just make him suffer more! That really ticked me off. The poor cat could only go so many steps before he had to lay down. He could barely clean himself. It made me so angry and disgusted. I couldn't believe it wasn't considered cruelty. They made their cat diabetic for crying out loud!

That poor cat
It's owner wants the book thrown at her, because that is a form of animal cruelty in my eyes to let it get to that size


It worried me when the vet told me that Rosie and Sophie were 2lb over weight!

How devastating.
The poor baby can hardly get up the stairs. Someone should help him.
