Kitty diet plan

[lexin]

I took Smokey to the vet, and Good News, she is in fine fettle for a cat of her age. Yippee.

Bad News, she is 5.9kg but should only be 4.5. That means she’s put on nearly a kilo since she was last weighed in 2019. She will have to go on a kitty diet and exercise plan – less cat food, fewer treats, more running about. Poor, poor kitty.

The vets are good, further away from where I live than my vets in London, but much, much cheaper and friendlier. I did have to wait outside, though, they are not allowing anyone in the surgery.

We are also going to have to re-start all her vaccinations because it is so long since we saw a vet – nearly three years. So she has a follow-up appointment in three weeks. Which will not make me popular as she hates the carrying basket.

Poor kitty. They do hate the basket when is time to go to the vets, but treat it as a refuge when they want to come home.
We had a very round kitty who got to the point that she couldn't clean herself. She really liked the cat diet biscuits though, to the point of refusing anything else.😺

Smokey hasn't reached that stage yet, she can manage to clean herself just fine. But I am reducing the amount of food she gets. I don't want her thin, just thinner than she is now.
