Our nicest vet, Dr Natalie looked after me when I went to the V-E-T on Tuesday. She said I was a bit F-A-T, and have to have these biscuits with the lovely name (see yesterdays post). I have 6 months to lose 10% of my weight, before I has to go back for my biggest loser weigh in.
The good news is that I am allowed to carry on eating Fancy Feast (as it is 80% water), but I have to have my new biscuits, on Tuesday night I ate the biscuits and liked them.
Wednesday and Today - I don't like them so much.
At the end of the visit, mum laughed coz I runned into my cat carrier, ready for the ride home.
So mum says she is going to join me, and she is going to lose 10% by the end of April too!!

It's fun that the two of you can do it together! Sorry you've gone off the biscuits already, maybe give them another try :-)
ReplyDeleteDiets are just not fun! Well at least, your mum is going to do it with you.
ReplyDeletePoppy Q - oh dear sick of the new nuts already. Glad you can still have your fancy feast.
ReplyDeleteI'll join you & your mum to loose 10% by April. mm that might mean I can't have pudding for breakfast aye.
Love Leanne
Fat? You shall see Nicky, my eldest cat!
ReplyDeleteThat's nice of your mom !
ReplyDeleteBe fair fair !!! Let's do it together !
not like my mom, I'm on diet, she is on ice-cream !
are you going to loose weight by not eating the biscuits?
ReplyDeleteAt least you get the fancy feast PoppyQ, that's a good thing!!!
ReplyDeleteIs it Fancy Feast and biscuits for your Mum as well? Our Mommy says most diet food might as well be! Good luck both of you on your slimming regime.
ReplyDeleteMaybe you won't mind dieting if Mom does. Mom laughed when she read that you runned into your carrier.....Kassey
ReplyDeleteGood for you sweetie. nice of your mom to go in a diet with you.
ReplyDeleteI went to the v-e-t a couple of weeks ago and she said I was getting a little pudgy too...now my mom is giving me less foods...and I don't like it very much.
ReplyDeleteGood luck on your diet, Poppy.

At least your Mom is going to join you - although does she have to eat the same biscuits? Heehee. For what it is worth, we think you look perfect!

Perhaps the biscuits can be mixed w/the Fancy Feast...:)
ReplyDeleteIt helps that your mom is going to help you. My mom needs to join in.
ReplyDeleteHow very nice of your Mum to join you, Poppy!
ReplyDeletePoppy, I think you look just right!
ReplyDelete......all the more to hug!

We wish you luck, Poppy. Better eats up dem biskies.
ReplyDeleteGood luck to both of you! Losing weight is not easy and we will be purring for you every step of the way. We know you can do it!
ReplyDeleteI'll join you too. Rusty could use any pounds you lose. He need to gain 2 pounds. Send them our way!
ReplyDeleteYou and your human are dieting together? Well, you know what they say, misery loves company! Do they have different flavors of biscuit you can try, perhaps?
ReplyDelete'Obesity Management' does not sound like a very delicious food, Poppy. And besides, you are quite lovely just as you are.
ReplyDeleteDr. Tad tells alla us (except for Gracie) that we are a bit fluffy, but that's because Gandalf's Rx foods put weight on. So basically... it's Dr. Tad's fault. Just saying.
Our vet suggested slowly weaning us off of our own food and onto the diet food by mixing them. We couldn't handle the switch from all regular to all diet food. We adjusted the mix for several weeks. We finally learned to semi like the diet food. Mum thinks it is every cat's right to be able to enjoy his meal.
ReplyDeleteOh Poppy...you are just fluffy and gorgeous. We none of us thinks you are f-a-t. NO no NO.
ReplyDeletenot nice. We are having fur ball paste but we quite like it (but only licked it once so far so may not like it tomorrow) Love Darcy and Bingley xx
ReplyDeleteIt's easier to lose weight with a partner, Poppy. And do not despair, I have to eat fat cat food too.
ReplyDeleteI think you look purrfect just the way you are, Poppy! But I wish you the best of luck with your endeavor! Maybe a a kitty-sized treadmill would help!
ReplyDeleteDon't feel bad Poppy. I've been trying to do the same for a year. Hope you have better luck. A little secret from me...."I love chubby cats" :)
ReplyDeleteOhhhh...good luck to both of you on the new diet! It's always easier with a partner :)
ReplyDeleteoh but you're just a perfectly shaped, fluffy bsh girl in your prime! (and honestly, vets have a weird view on different breeds, not all are suppose to look like a slender built siamese...:)
ReplyDeletei hope you'll enjoy those new biscuits with time.
Oh Poppy Q, you have to go on a diet! It must be tough. But it is very nice of your mom to do diet with you. Good luck to both of you!
