no, we got that test and shes "normal" in that sense.
we just now started a new food for her that is supposed to help her lose weight.


and i try and play with her every day to get her moving. but after a few minutes, she sits down and there is no moving her.
she weighs about 24 pounds now and, although she is not hard to pick up, she is hard to hold steady for more than a few seconds so i cant really get her moving once she decides to stop.

Honestly, you know what I would do? I would start jogging, and take the cat with me, on a leash. You'd be the coolest person ever, and you'd both get into shape.

Cat + leash = noes!


It's like trying to drag a pit bull around by a string around its balls. Not gonna happen.
