I wish my cat was fat.

[Placebo]

She's only 9lbs. She's minuscule.

I like big cats.

[Fiona]

1. It warms the cocklettes of my heart

to see "minuscule" spelled correctly. You get a gold star.

[Placebo]

3. Thanks!

:D

[merwin]

4. miniscule is in the dictionary too! (as a variant of minuscule) n/t

[Fiona]

8. Well

the editor of that dictionary needs to be de-cocked and shot.

[merwin]

2. I've got one huge cat and one tiny cat. Oddly enough,

The tiny one was supposed to get to about 25 lbs (pixie-bob breed). The huge one I have is just fat :-)

That's the breaks I guess.

[Placebo]

5. Them's the breaks.

Fat cats are COOL.

[merwin]

6. Yeah, he is damn cute. heh. n/t

[ogradda]

7. mine looks like a big fat furry orange.

with stripes :)

[Placebo]

10. I wish mine was a bit fat furry fruit of some type.

[spooky3]

9. no you don't

One of mine is 9 lbs but the other is around 17--with some effort he's lost a little weight. Poor thing, the heavy one eats next to nothing (I know because I weighed his intake and he eats less than the 9 pounder) and I give him no treats or food he should not have. The problem is he likes nothing more than sleeping and cuddling. He has many health risks that are exacerbated by the weight. We have tried all sorts of interventions but the vet says just as some people have slow metabolism, so do some cats. When it warms up outside, I'll try to get him to move around with me.

[Placebo]

11. Aww, I'm sorry...

that sucks. Poor lil guy.

[Sanity Claws]

12. Can you get another one?

You could adopt an adult cat. Just make sure it's full-figured, the way you like them.

[Placebo]

14. Well my cat is 12 years old already...

I'd hate to have to introduce another cat to her at this point. I'd rather she just age peacefully. :)

[Deja Q]

13. Have her eat some of these:

[Placebo]

15. AHHHHH!!!

:scared: Never!

I wouldn't even have the courage to take them out of the jar for her!

[shance]

16. Don't tell your kitty that! She will be so hurt........!!!!

They sense those things you know. :)

(they really do*)


You can get another kitty, but remember, little kitties are precious too!!!

[Placebo]

20. She could care less...

as long as I feed her and let her sleep on my lap, she's happy as can be!

[Samurai_Writer]

17. 9 pounds?!? Try 6 1/2 pounds...

My cat went from 10 pounds to 5.7 pounds because of hyperthyroidism. She's up to 6 1/2, but I would be thrilled if she would get up to at least 7!

My other cat is almost 12 pounds, long and lanky.

Little black momma cat and long, lanky gray son cat... Nightmare and Smoke.



EDIT: added photo

[Placebo]

24. 6.5lbs?

Wow, that's tiny.

[Astrochimp]

18. I have one @ 6 lbs, and a couple over 20 lbs, and..........

while it is nice to have a big one sometimes, the little one (their mom)is so much nicer to have sit on you for any length of time. (I have 17 lbs Porkchop sleaping on my lap now- but he is medum sized.)

The big ones (Buster, Wally and Coco) are all mid 20's or above, but NOT fat. No idea how they stay in such great shape as all they do is sleep. Buster is the biggest. He likes to sleap on your pillow at night, where he curls up around your head, touching each shoulder. I need some photos to show how big he is.

[Placebo]

23. 20+ lbs!!!

WOW. :wow:

[EstimatedProphet]

19. Wish granted

Your cat is now 75 lbs. She leaves huge red blotches when she kneads you.
Wait, are we still playing the wish corruptor game?

[Placebo]

22. That would be cool!

Well...not really. I'd have to feed her whenever she wanted me to, or there'd be trouble. :scared:

[HEyHEY]

21. Feed her to a fat cat

[Placebo]

25. Or I could feed you to my cat.

:D

[HEyHEY]

29. I'd glady sacrifice my body, if I thought he could actually do it

[catbert836]

26. No, you don't.

I have a fat one right here, and the vet always yells at me when I take Carmel in for a check-up. He is extremely cute, but he would be even cuter if he would lose some weight. I put diet food out for him, but he refuses to eat eat, even when mixed in with regular food.

[Placebo]

27. Would you want to eat diet cat food?

:D

[catbert836]

You're missing the point

You DON'T want to have a fat cat. As cute as they are, its no fun.

[Der Blaue Engel]

28. I have one fat cat getting fatter every day

And one skinny cat getting skinnier every day. I think the fat one is eating parts of the skinny one. :shrug:

[donheld]

30. If your cat never shat

it might be fat did you know that :eyes: shot me now.

[Inland]

31. What do you consider a big cat?

[Placebo]

32. AHH!

That's no cat, that's a horse. :)

[gollygee]

35. WOW look at that cat!!!

is that your cat??? And how much does he/she weigh???

[Inland]

37. Not my cat, got pic off of web.

I assume it is legit but who knows.

[pink-o]

33. Next time, get a Bombay

...I have one, Miss Patty, and she eats anything and everything! None of this finicky turn your nose up cattitude from her! They're naturally chubby, and lush with thick black fur.

But you gotta pay them a lot of attention and play with them at least 3 times a day. And they're lap barnacles, totally affectionate.

Personally, I love it!

[gollygee]

34. I've got a skinny cat too

I think she's about the same weight. My baby weighed more when she was born then this cat has ever weighed.

I'd have to do a profile for you to see how skinny she is, but . . .

[Placebo]

38. That is one COOL looking cat!!!

I love the two different colour paws. :D

[Lorien]

36. I had a five pound cat

40. You can have too much of a good thing, though

[Placebo]

41. Could that cat even WALK?

:wow:

[FizzFuzz]

42. I love this pic!

I knowwwww, it's not healthy for the kitty, but still, toooo DARN cute!
