I'm not interested in seeing excuses for abuse. They made a blog about their abused cat and people follow it and like the images because this abuse is considered 'cute'. It's sickening.

. You guys are why we keep this blog going and I appreciate every single one of you, despite the jagweeds who keep crying to me about how I’m glorifying animal abuse, because obvz they don’t know the whole story

Also, the cat died in 2019.

No licensed vet would ever say a morbidly obese cat is 'fine'.

The owners fed the cat into morbid obesity, that was the diet it was on.

That cat was too fat to 'work out'. At that size, it would have been in pain from the strain on its joints after walking to its food bowl.

The cat died prematurely due to this abuse, I don't even have to check the age it died to be able to tell you this.

Stop defending animal abusers.

Checked for you: cat was seven, which I believe is around half their lifespan. I didn't look at the rest of it; just fuck those people for not taking his health seriously.
