What always amazes me is that I can't really pick up a 100 pound box now, but I carried that much on my body all the time!

Ummm is it bad that what I take from this post is that my cat is average sized, and not fat like everyone else says?! I get made fun of all the time since our cat that I inherited (Kris and the kids already had her) now has treats and is um, a little more robust than when I came into her life.

Love it! I personally think that kitties should be spoiled and well-fed.

If you want the expert guide to cat weight, these guidelines are similar to what I've gotten from our vet:

Uh oh, according to that chart, Chloe is a "smidge" overweight!

I mean, we all have food issues here...should I be surprised I have passed that on to my cat?! Grrrrrr....

When we got our kittens, I remember Grim and I laughing that the odds of us not having obese pets was pretty slim given their parents. But so far so good--just right and not overeaters at all! Go figure.
