When I adopted her she was 21 pounds and I had to use a small dog carrier. She’s now at a healthy 13 (she’s long).
Another photo of her from her chonk days:
My cat looks similar to yours :D
How’d you get my cat?
She is absolutely gorgeous by the way. Zombii used to be super chonky too, but she lost quite a bit of weight. She is 15 now, and more playful than ever
Big fluff void club!
She looks so sweet 🥰
Don’t be fooled. She’ll get you 9/10 times. Her quarter rag doll will kick in and then she will get mad about it lol
Any advice? I’m trying to slim mine down lol. I’ve got her on some royal canin (or whatever it is) weight loss food (1/4th cup 2x daily), but is there anything else that can help?
I did the same with the food (“diet” kibble, same measurements). The biggest thing was getting her to move. I had to dedicate time after work to play with her until she was a little winded. I did minimum of 4 days a week. And it took some time. I adopted her in 2021, so it took a good 3 years to get her down. The smaller they get, the easier it gets because they start doing extra stuff on their own. Like, once she got energy, she would do “zoomies.” First just here and there, and soon she was doing laps at night just cause she could. When she lost enough to get to that point (I want to say that was around 18 or 17), she started to lose more. The first year I got her to the 18/17 range, but the by the second year, she was one pound from her goal.
Awesome, thanks! I’ll try and get her moving!
Also came back to add that if she did get any treats, she had to work for them (still does). Jump up on something, follow me to another room, etc.
Thanks!
