Look at that belly! He's SO CUTE!My cat needs to go on a diet. There. I said it. I really do not want to put him through this but I think it's time. We're kind of in denial about it.
You know how it goes....
Friend: "Hey, your cat is kind of fat since the last time I saw him."
Us: "No he's not! He's just a little stocky."
Friend: "Are you sure? I think he's fat."
Us: "Really? No he's not... Is he really?"
Friend: "Yep."
Or you could use a excuse like my lovely grandparents do about their dog: "She's not fat! She just needs a haircut!"
Right...
We saw it coming. Every time he see us he meows and runs to his bowl. It's like he's really saying, "Feed me! Feed me! I love it when you feed me. If you don't then I won't love you" and somehow his expression looks like this I swear it.
How can you say no to that?!?Well we started to try to trick him and give him a spoonful every hour or so. Ended up being more work for us. So then we started to measure his food out for what a 15 lb cat would need. That's not really working either. So what to do next......??
LOW CALORIE CAT FOOD
Do you think it tastes bad? I feel really bad about it. It's probably worse to let him get obese and get diabetes and joint problems though.
Sigh........
He's going to hate us.
I thought I'd be nice and post a picture of him looking quite slim. It's just a trick of the camera and the way he's laying though.
haha you are so funny i love this post! low calorie cat food eh? You should try it and see if it tastes better then the regular stuff. did i really just say that?
