So difficult when they are overweight to limit their food - my last kitty BUC was about 18 pounds and I just never had the heart to "starve" him and it's especially hard with multiple cats to control their food - BUC lived to be 16 so he did very well. Good luck Dix.
She has "dental disease" which is like humans get. She's had tooth aches for the last few weeks. I'm babying her and she's eating up the extra attention. She's also too heavy so we're on a diet.
