Jun. 23rd, 2006 07:31 pmAs many of you know, my Boomerang, Fool-of-a-Took, Cat of No Brain, is what one might call a Big'un. 21 pounds at last weigh-in, and the vet figured about 16 pounds of that is muscle and bone.
His healthy weight should therefore be around 17-18 pounds. I'm sure you see where this was heading...
I am pleased to announce that, three months after being put on a more careful feeding schedule (aka "no 24/7 noshing dish"), Boomer has not only rediscovered his waist (when you look at a cat from above, you should see a clearly defined waist) but his neck as well! He is still a Big'un, but now he looks more like a high school football player rather than a steroid-loving weight lifter covered in orange fur.
I now declare him (pending weigh-in) appropriately bulked-up for a boycat, and have given him an extra scoop of kibble to celebrate.
He still thinks I'm starving him to death, of course.
