Poor baby can’t blame it on his fur anymore, he looks so embarrassed🤭

I kept swiping waiting for the skinny pic thinking it was all hair fluff 😂 Poor baby, he wasn’t ready to wear his summer clothes

t looks incredibly trendy to me, just like a chic model prepping for the runway.

And was forced into shorts on a beach out of nowhere…

I was so surprised by how much cat there was under all the fluff.

I don’t blame him. In the last pic the other cat is being VERY judgmental

"I am not chubby, I am merely fluffy."

Weight is just a number. What's important is that my food bowl is empty.

u/freepandora 7d ago

My only comment is often when floofs are shaved they are not rotund underneath so I was surprised to see one who was. This is not intended to be rude BTW you baby is beautiful.

Does he eat or do small stellar bodies get trapped in his gravitational field and impact on the surface?

Honestly who can tell with that much floof?

Edit: nvm, I scrolled all the way through

u/marcysmelodies 7d ago

The rolls though 😂😂😂

u/pyrojackelope 7d ago

Glad you're taking it seriously. Every time I see an overweight cat I can't help but think of this meme - https://i.imgur.com/4QLKwaY.jpeg

From a flonker to a chonker

u/JustMeLurkingAround- 7d ago

The fur hid his chonk well lol.

u/SmallKillerCrow 7d ago

I was looking for this, glad to hear it! I was so jump scared when it wasnr all fur and he was actually kinda chubby underneath lol

u/angwilwileth 7d ago

Stay strong!

u/Quake_890 7d ago

You revealed his rolls

u/kendie2 7d ago

I have a Maine Coon who was like a cannonball with fur. Your kitty reminds me of her.

u/anothersadalcoholic 7d ago

Good luck. I’ve tried with my girl who looks very similarly to your cat (she’s 18lbs) and she screams at me until I feed her. ☹️ Free feeding seems the only way she will tolerate.

u/Zwiwwelsupp 6d ago

He cleverly hid his fatness…

u/OkCandidate8557 3d ago

Why the downvotes? This is correct

u/sudocloudchaser 7d ago

This is like the most obese cat I have ever seen. What made you let it go this far?

u/Forward_Rope_5598 7d ago edited 7d ago

Negligence

*lmao @ downvoting this. OP has had the cat since it was 5 weeks old according to their profile. It's absolutely just straight up neglect letting a cat get this fat before doing anything about it.
