That cats are like people- some are predisposed to gain weight while others aren't. I have two cats, one is normal weight and the other is huge (may be a Maine Coon, but still sort of chunky). The big one does not eat that much. I tried him on diet food and fed him exactly what the vet said. He was supposed to lose 1/4 pound per week and he lost 1/4 pound the entire year! I've tried cutting back his food even more, but he whines and I can't tell if his tummy hurts because he's hungry or if he's just being a brat. He's too smart for the toys I have for him. I bought one of those laser lights for them to chase (the little one could do that all day). The big one will only chase it for a second. Waving toys in front of his face doesn't work, he attacks me instead of the toy (and he hurts!). A few times I've had success crumpling up a piece of paper and throwing it around - he catches it and tears it up. Maybe some sort of toy that is battery operated and moves by itself? |
I'm convinced - DW
