Oh, it's a good thing you didn't have MY vet! She'd be all over your case for letting him get so fat. Fortunately, all my cats have been lean (but not mean). The Maine Coon is snoozing over on the couch, while the little rescue girl Kefira is curled up in front of the refrigerator. Even in the summer, she craves the warmth. They are only resting up for the midnight crazies, you know. Zoom-zoom-zoom.
To better times for you and Pumpkin! (no beer necessary, yuck)
