For the record, today is my last day of work, so you can expect lots more frivolous posting between now and the Big Day.

    STick that under a headboard and you’ve got my cat’s favorite position! And they are the same size too. 19 lbs?

    How cute! It makes me want to reach through the monitor and scratch their bellies.

    God I miss my cat- we put her to sleep last month. :(

  10. 19 lbs? Surely you jest. He clocked in at a robust 21 at his last office visit! His brother (the black one in the second picture), who once maxed out at 17 lbs., now comes in at a svelte 13-14.

    I’m afraid we’ll see 21 yet. My vet just laughed at 19 and said he’s the 2nd biggest cat in his practice. And the honor goes to a 28 lb’er and this guy won’t be able to WALK if he gets that large, so we’re going to keep 2nd prize.

    I just am not sure how he has achieved this status. I have one who is petite at 9 lbs and another at 11, and then humongo. How did you get weight loss (or was that from Hippo eating everything:)? (I can’t really do much of a diet because the small one does not need to lose weight.) The truly freaky part at my house is that I swear humongo does not eat that much. I rarely see him eat at all. The vet assures me he does…..
