It's a serious question. Is there some body mass index for cats? She is growing and maybe getting a little porky and i dont want that to happen. how do I tell?
That's always a good rule of thumb too! But like us, haha, animals can put on lots of weight in one place and if its in their bellies, the rib test wont be totally accurate.... I'm sure they don't worry about the size of their butts as much as we do though!Originally Posted by jcat

I've always been told that you should be able to feel your cat's ribs, but not see them.
