	Do you have a cat that will do nothing but eat? All he will do is eat, sleep and go outside for a bit? If your kittycat is overr 15 lbs then you need to get your little kittie on a diet! A good way to get them on a diet is switching their bowls around everyday so they will have to get up walk around and look for it. Try to do that atleast 3 times a day. It worked for my cat. He lost 2 lbs by the end of the week!! You can get them diet food or whatever diet pounce treats you wnatt. But they mostly need exercise. Take a day off to put your cat outside and make a homemade toyy then drag it on the ground to get there attention. If they arent looking whip it around their nose so theycan see it then drag it away from the cat.this will strengthen and losen the weight on the cats legs that puts pressure on the ankles and boness and could possibly cause mild authritis. Enjoy having a good time with your cat. If it gets annoyed or angry and hungry let it have a couple diet pounce treats that will settle them its better than a whole bowl of food. In the morning give your cat half to about 1/3 cup of food in their bowl. They will be hungry but not hungry for a full bowl. After they eat do the samee thing with excercises again. But rmember your kitty needs its beauty sleep. So at night let your cat in and let it sleep wherever it chooses. Be easy on your cat though. It may have difficulty breathing lugging all that weight behind. So only do the exercises for about an hour each day! oon you'll see results. If you have any questions please ask me or my cats

	Another good thing is to make sure your kitty has a good diet. Foods with a lot of fillers and stuff in them can contribute to a cat's weight gain! Check your food and make sure there is no corn, corn syrup, artificial colors/flavors (who needs those!) and make sure that chicken, beef, or other specified meat is the first ingredient. If not, you should consider switching foods! Before I was adopted I weighed 16 lbs. My previous owners gave me this icky food called Purina Deli-Cat and it was full of all the things I mentioned above. It even came in different shapes and colors which is so silly because cats don't care about the silly artificial colors and different shapes! It looked like a kid's breakfast cereal! When my new owners adopted me they got rid of that "junk food" and started me on a good high-quality diet. I am now down to 14 lbs and still going down! I am eating Wellness Lite if you are wondering... Another thing to keep in mind is it is not healthy for cats to lose weight fast or go on a drastic food reduction diet. Cats can get something called fatty liver syndrome so you have to be careful if you put them on a diet-- it's best to talk to your vet before reducing your cat's amount of food... To be healthy weight loss should be slow and steady. It can take many months to lose the weight but it is the safest way to do so.
