    Please don’t consider this an approval of his chonkiness - he is at “fat camp,” which is the obviously right thing to do. Don’t overfeed your pets, people!

    Crumbs is such a cute name, but a little small when he’s the whole loaf

    I wonder if they shaved him before or during the shoe rack, and is he eating out of a crock? This seems like a Southpark episode for some reason. Next they’re going to say he snuck an amusement park in…

      I looked up the full article about his case and they wrote that the shaving happened because he has to walk on a treadmill to help him loose weight. They submerged that treadmill under some water to help ease stress on the poor cat’s joints. They also take him getting stuck as a good sign because he used to be so fat he wasn’t able to move at all and his attempt at escape is proof that he’s becoming more energetic.

          Crumbs does not enjoy treadmill time.

      My guess is that he was very badly matted, so they shaved him at the beginning of “fat camp”

      Really obese cats can’t groom themselves well enough, so they get really bad fur mats (especially long-haired cats)

        Even more likely since it seems like he was a stray. Seems to me, like he cried at everyone around about how hungry he is and found more than one bleeding heart.

        Our households cat is a healthy weight yet he still gets severe matting. He has to be shaved every couple years otherwise the matts will hurt him. Brushing doesn’t seem to help. He has a weird, almost silky feeling fur.

          I get that feeling, I have a long-haired orange cat and we constantly have to cut mats out of his armpits XD

    Everything in that title sounds like something from a 90s movie.
