He's a bit chubby but he's not OH LAWD HE COMIN' or anything. I agree with the poster who said try to keep him from gaining more weight tho because a lot of vets will mercilessly bully you as a pet owner if your pet is overweight.
I would have to agree with the vets. There is absolutely zero reason for your pet to be overweight (medical reasons not included). It's not like they can just go eat whenever they want.
Spoken by someone who has truly never had to defend one’s food from a determined tortie who makes it her life’s mission to eat whatever you’re eating. Smh
No I just train my cats. It takes a long time but it's worth it in the end. All 4 of mine sit and are quiet before they get their food. They don't jump up when I'm eating.
No idea why ur being downvoted, just tellin ya i agree. This behaviour is absolutely avoidable. And if you have such a difficult cat, it's lock out of the room time.
We have our cat eat dinner in a separate room while we are eating dinner, so she can't try to get the yummy food I cook. It's really an easy problem to solve.
I’m pretty sure a vet would also not recommend letting your cat go outside unattended. I have yet to meet a vet that thinks outdoor cats are acceptable.
