More PuddING and puddY

[Tiggy's Mum]

They're still growing so I wouldn't worry about her weight at this stage.  She could have a growth spurt in a few weeks and then you'll be worried that she's underweight!

When the boys were growing up I would often think that they were underweight (Riley looked like a string bean at one point, ridiculously lanky) and then a few weeks later I'd worry that they were putting on too much weight.  They're 1 1/2 now and Riley is much heavier than Lu but that's down to his build, neither of them are overweight.

They haven't been to the vet since their vacs (they are due to be done next month though) Everytime I've ordered their worming tablets I've told them their weight and nobody has commented. The vet said when they went for their kitten checkat 8 weeks that because of Izzy's heart murmur she would likely be small.......FAT CHANCE hehe

She looks quite solid and not a big cat, so reckon you need to keep a watch on her eating. What does the vet say?

Misa is an enomous cat and 7yrs old and he is bit heavy at 6.5 kg, Sasa my tortie is also a heavy cat and at 9yrs is over 5kg, both their jelly bellies could do with a reduction

Over the last couple of weeks several people have commented on how large and heavy Izzy is getting. It's starting to make me just a tad paranoid. She's always been larger than Bella who has always been fairly dainty. Izzy now weights 4kg and is 5 months old. Is this heavy?

I've just taken some pictures so you can see her she definaty heavier these days and has 'filled out' but I've always assumed this was normaly until people started to comment  ..
