Does your cat know how to morph into a child?

Bit early to be fat shaming your kid at that age, no? At least wait till they learn to walk.

Typically chonkiness is simply from free feeding or providing too many calories. There's a dechonking guide pinned up at the top of r/dechonkers . It has a lot of good info in it. But more importantly, it has a link to a calorie calculator! You provide current weight, select the chonk number based on body shape and it will recommend a healthy weight and number of calories to feed per day.

Do you have any idea how many calories he is currently eating per day?

It's a journey to get your cat to a healthy weight and there's a bit of effort to get them started, but getting your kitty to a healthy weight is surprisingly a reward for humans as well!
