I've got several overweight... everyone jokes at how big all of our cats are. We have one boy - Rudy - who is 24lbs! He's a big boy... his brother is close at about 18lbs... so I worry about them the most. I also use kitty wipes... we have a spinabifida baby kitty who wears diapers so we have lots of wipes!
Thanks for your input!
