he is chunky but he isn't ridiculous cutting his life expectancy in half fat. our girl is 17 pounds of calico BUT a picky eater unless its dry kitten food. And our kitten is going to get fixed, thankfully, in about 3 weeks is skinny as a rail and can't seem to add weight. Does caterwalling use a lot of calories???? /s

Dude I think all calicos are a little rotund! I took Pudding to the vet thinking she was OBESE and they were like no she’s just…round…

I have a chonker. The vet said he was fine, just to try to keep him from gaining.
