Spooky is getting a belly and what am I doing wrong she only eats twice when we eat breakfast together and supper together no treats am I over feeding her she gets one scoop of meow mix
If she's just getting a belly that looks more like deflated extra skin, it's called a primordial pouch. Which is a fancy way of saying extra skin for reasons not completely understood. Many cats have them and it doesn't mean anything in terms of their health or weight. Spooky is right around the age to start developing one if she's going to have one.Spooky is getting a belly and what am I doing wrong she only eats twice when we eat breakfast together and supper together no treats am I over feeding her she gets one scoop of meow mix
My guys go outside and climb trees regularly. It's not uncommon to find a cat on the roof of the house or garage. All of their favorite trees have scratch marks in the bark from them going up and down. At Links last vet exam the vet commented on how he has so much muscle on his abdomen that she can't get a good feel for the organs under the muscle like she can on my girl (in reference to her pointing out I'd need to do x-rays if I ever think he's constipated or has digestive issues because she just can't feel it). Despite all this, Link has a pouch so big it hits his sides when he runs despite the muscle. So I don't know if I agree that climbing and muscles will get rid of the pouch.unless you set it up so that she can climb, and climb a lot, she will have the belly, so will the other one. Climbing is the only exercise that will flatten those muscles. IF you try to diet it off, you'll move to a very skinny cat with a belly. This is what the vet told me.
Only one of our many cats was interested in climbing. We had a rug that was 8 feet long 3 feet wide that was attached to a shelf which hung on the door. The cat could climb the carpet and sit on the shelf. he did this a lot and didn't have the belly. You will need to brace the door so it doesn't close while the cat is climbing which is a lot more
forceful than you might think.
I was just going to mention, and good for you! Can you give them more frequent small meals so they aren't so hungry in between and end up gobbling?switched to a different
I got her a tunnel well I have to get the rest of it but Sandwich loves it I throw it she dive bombs into it and spooky loves it I'm trying to get someone to make holes into the shelves so they play in themyou have a nice cat room. If you wanted to make it more exciting for cats you might make a cat space on each of the open shelves. I also have a small bookcase that is made like stair steps with the largest shelf at the bottom and the smallest at the top. If you found something similar you could put it near the open shelves to make leaping to higher ones possible. Or
you could buy one of the cat tunnels. Other members have them and are better able to suggest which are the sturdiest for two cats. I see a lot of cat games with a tunnel. Check Chewy.com and amazon to see different ones.
