Have your cats lost weight?
You can imagine the scene:
My friend Elena comes over, sees the boys and says, "Wow - have your cats lost weight???" Me, a little pleased and self conscious "Why yes - I'm sooooo glad you noticed!!" Struck me as funny - but boy have they slimmed down and look sleek now. They could both use tummy tucks but I love them just the way they are Susan M Otis and Chester Slim cats |

Congrats at being sucessful at keeping them on their diet. Vino could use a tummy tuck too, but he's been stable at 12 lbs all his life. Dennis says it's normal to have the flap because lions have it too. I think it's cute the way it wobbles to and fro when he runs. -- Britta "There is no snooze button on a cat who wants breakfast." -- Unknown Check out pictures of Vino at: http://photos.yahoo.com/badwilson click on the Vino album |

Rusty never has any belly flap.
I dread hearing "Have you cat lost weight?" The vet said he need to put on some weight. He has never been a heavy cat. Of course having his prescription food rationed carefully doesn't help. But those food cost so much, especially when I am not working. Rusty did gain back some weight recently. I am not starving him. He is back to 8.5 lb. But he was 10 lb some years ago.

My Buddha is also slimming down nicely, and also could use a tummy tuck! I am so proud of her. |

Sundance has lost some weight, too -- enough that he can now keep his back
end clean! Do they even do that kind of "tummy tuck"? I wouldn't put him through surgery just for that, but I've thought of asking the vet about it if he ever needs other surgery.

I wouldn't put him through surgery just for that, but I've thought of asking the vet about it if he ever needs other surgery. Sandy I was joking when I said Bandit had a tummy tuck. What happened is that she went into the vet to have her teeth cleaned and the heating bag they used burned her very badly on her stomach, back and side. She has long hair and hid the buru for over a week! By the time I found it, it had gotten necrotic and the had to remove large areas of skin from her stomach, back and side. This has made her look very "trim" since she doesn't have any loose flesh left! But it doesn't look "fit" really, it just looks kind of odd (but I still love her even with her patchy, growing back white hair and funny-looking silhouette! ; Hugs, CatNipped "Susan M" smawdsley remove @shaw.ca wrote in message news:YQSle.1500448$6l.673129@pd7tw2no...

Not too long ago, my brother's d*g went on a calorie controlled diet at his vet's recommendation. He was so successful that he won the practice's doggy weight watcher of the month award. The prize was a big bag of dog food. |
