Cussypat, don't worry, no offence taken!
I think I'm a bit defensive because folks used to say Rosie Dog was fat. Ok she was half Labrador and they tend to middle age spread. But she really was 'big-boned'. She had big feet and very solid legs and a big mane of hair around her neck. If she had been thin she would have looked silly.
Tom and Willow look chunky from the side, but not from the top. In fact Tommy is on the skinny side, his hip bones show.
Gracie must have hip bones, though you'd never know. She's like a little barrel.
The others are not taking well to her diet. Bobby sits by an empty bowl, looking pathetic and meowing 'MUM, I'm STARVING!'
I had a friend who's cat, Oliver, was so fat he filled the
corners of the cat flap! She could not understand it as she was very careful what she fed him. Turns out little begger was doing the rounds in four other houses. She got him a 'do not feed' collar and the weight started to come off.
