You should read the FAQ on that page, they talk about the cat's chonkness

Yeah, about the FAQ.

He’s just a huge fat cat. He diets, he works out, but never really loses any weight. We’re not too worried about it. His actual licensed vet says he’s fine, so we’ll just listen to her because she went to cat medical school or whatever.

How is this possible? That cat is way beyond the "healthy at any size" range.

I'm certainly not a veterinarian and I'm quite prepared to be proven wrong, but yeah your explanation seems much more likely
