We have two shops on the Square, the newsstand and the art supply store, that have resident cats. They aren't monsters, though! LOL!

He does get a lot of walks so he's still quite fit but with cats, the activity level is really different. Speaking of fat cats - this is a bit of a tangent - but there's a local shop where the owners bring their cat in and let it roam about the place. Usually, it's fast asleep but it's enormous! I do mean enormous to the point that it's the size of a small dog. Oddly enough, its name is 'Monster." Hehehehe. I know I’m a bit guilty of overdoing the treats with my dog.

One cannot help but note that the lolcat meme has produced many photographs of overweight and obese cats. And as the owners are the dispensers of the food that creates these health risks the information and the advice you provide under Keep Your Cat Healthy is spot on.

Many people are not aware of the damage they are doing by overfeeding their pets. Instead, they think of it as "spoiling them". Hopefully some cat owners will see this and either not let their cat get fat, or do something to help their already fat cat get back to a normal level. For anyone reading this: If you have an overweight pet, consult with your veterinarian for information on how to get it back in shape. Each type requires different steps, especially if there are existing problems such as arthritis. Thanks for posting that informational entry!
