In today's News I also see that besides the 3 Year old that go stuck in a Toy Machine (http://forums.toonzone.net/showthread.php?t=163247)(and the Blind Neighbor who saved a woman from a house fire), we got a 45 Pound Cat running around.. in Smyrna Georgia..

Meet Sam, a cat who knows how to heft his weigh around.. and to think, this hefty feline of 45 pounds started out as a tiny cute kitten that was able to sit inside a coffee cup..

now what is intriguing is that Cats usually don't get over 20 pounds.. but Sam here is 45 pounds almost double the weight of most cats. (His owner claims it's like Hefting around a couple sacks of Potatoes)..

but Apparently what is really odd is that rather then suffering with obesity, or health problems, Sam is able to carry around his weight quite nicely...

but then it makes me wonder if this cat will in the future have other health problems..

but that's not just a cat.. that's more like as one friend puts it.."A giant furball... with legs!"

But your thoughts on this?

:coyote:

That's disgusting, though he doesn't look as fat as they say. I'd guess 30 pounds at the most. They say cats don't overeat, but obviously there are exceptions to every rule. My cat's heaviest was around 17, but we've since gotten her down to more healthful levels. I guess as long as Sam is able to get around like normal and have a bit of excersize like all cats should, it won't be too much of a problem. Though I'm not expecting to see videos of him jumping or anything!

If I was his owner, you'd bet I would have regimented his diet more strictly. Kudos to Guiness for dropping the Fattest Cat category.

Is this the legendary "World's fattest cat" from Weekly World News?

The one that turned anorexic or something?

That cat is bigger than that fat cat from China (http://abclocal.go.com/kgo/story?section=bizarre&id=3924620).

Is it bad for me to think that fat cats look cute even though I know that it's extremely unhealthy for cats(or any pets of that matter) to be that fat? :sad:
