Chonky cats (and other animals)

This is a community for posting pictures or memes involving chubby cats (also known as chonkers). Please keep in mind we do not condone pet obesity, and instead would like to help people who do have obese cats get them on a diet and help them lose weight and become healthier.

One of the biggest reasons might be, because "chonkers" can be considered an animal abuse, as overfeeding your pet is not healthy for said pet, and causes them to suffer from inability to live their life to the fullest, and most likely they will strain their internal organs to the point of failure. The knowledge of this has reduced the popularity of real life "chonkers", as people actually feel empathy towards animals, instead of considering them as cheap "entertainment".

Some cats are just big naturally, grotesque is a matter of opinion.
