March/April weight loss thread

[Possegal]

I wasn't sure of Tucker-cat's goal weight - he is aiming to maintain?

The cat in my avatar is my Mum's cat, who I took in when she died. He's a big boy, always was, but when I took him, he ballooned to 21 lbs. I said to my vet - oh no, I'm one of those owners, aren't I? She laughed, said yes, then asked someone to help me get him to the car. This is a cat only clinic - I said to her that I bet she didn't have to do that often, and she said no.

So we put him on a kitty diet. Eventually, he got to just under 16 lbs. But I told her I learned that kitty dieting is just as hard as people dieting. He was obsessed with his food!

He died of cancer in January and by then was down to 3+ lbs, it was so very weird to see that. Especially since his nickname among my friends was "big boy Bailey", "fatcat", many jokes on his weight.

Oh Bailey, I miss you!!
