“Dr, is my cat overweight… or just fluffy?” 🐱
👩🏻⚕️: "Hmm good question petparents. Let us tell you".
A thick coat can make it hard to tell. Try feeling and palpate your cat’s ribs, looking for a waist from above, and checking their tummy from the side and compare with the chart that we've prepared.
Being an overweight cat can increase the risk of diabetes and joint problems and we've see a lot.
But being too thin especially after recent or sudden weight loss also can also be a sign that something might be wrong.
Not sure where your cat fits on the chart?
Ah no worries! Book an appointment at :
