Chelsea said, both animals consume the same amount of food, but the difference is that Pumpkin almost all the time lies.

“A few years ago, Pumpkin was trapped in the door for cats. It was a great stress, it is jammed — I couldn’t move neither forward nor back. Since then he’s been avoiding her,” said the mistress.

“He is very friendly and loving cat, but he turned into a couch. His daily exercise consists of moving to the bowl of water and food and return to bed”, she added.

According to her, the Pumpkin loves the dry food and don’t mind to eat her ice cream and chips.

The main PDSA vet Fiona Gregge that will help Pumpkin to lose weight, warns that obesity among Pets is becoming a more serious problem.

“Excess weight can pose serious health risks and lead to reduction of lifetime, as well as dangerous diseases, including arthritis, diabetes and heart disease,” she says.
