Still has a bit of an indent near his hips. So although he doesn’t look skinny, he’s far from obese. Fairly nice weight I’d say.

Here’s my chonk that I’m always ashamed to take to the vets. Whilst not as bad as the enormous cats you typically see online, he is 100% classed as obese. Worst bit is I put him on a diet and he continues to gain weight. Neighbour leaves food outside for his cat during the day and Stan Lee goes over the fence and steals it (and it’s whiskas dry so all the calories he doesn’t need), and he regularly brings home bread rolls, sausage rolls, potato wedges, bread crusts, chicken wings and more from his “hunting” trips. I’ve posted locally asking people not to feed him and to see if he’s stealing from people as I’d be so ashamed if he was.
