An abandoned 30lb monster moggy who weighs the same as a three-year-old has embarked on a diet and fitness regime in a desperate bid to shift the 'quarantine flab'.
Lasagna, who tips the scales at a whopping 29.5lbs (2st 1lb) is nearly four times the healthy 8lbs weight for a cat and struggled to walk and groom herself.
The plump cat was found abandoned in a dog crate overnight in Hunting Park by ACCT Philly shelter workers in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, on Sunday September 20.
Stunned staff put Lasagna, named after Garfield's favorite meal, on a strict diet and had to help her clean herself, a task she found impossible to do due to her size.

Was probably eating the owners out of house and home. Might have been afraid she was going to eat THEM.

Wow. She’s only three years old. Hope they gave her a thorough checkup before blaming a poor diet.

It does look a bit too big.
We have a 16-lb Savannah mix that seems huge to us, but vet is happy at checkups.

My sleek little black Burmese kitty is probably right around 4lb. fully grown. We call her The Black Flash because she flies around the house like a holy terror.

Shoulda named this cat 'Geno' or 'Pat' as it looks like he's had one too many cheese steaks - wiz, wit

Until we adopted two cats with cardiac issues a decade ago, we had no idea how crappy and unsuitable a lot of cat food has gotten.
Where the heck is Fedzilla when you need ‘em.

We used to have a 26 pound Maine Coon, but he wasn’t fat with a 35 inch long body.
