Juli is 7 (turns 8 next month). I would say she’s more on the inactive side, she spends a lot of time napping and lounging lol. In warmer weather, we keep our back door open, so she’s able to hang in the enclosed little yard. She likes to walk the perimeter, maybe catch a bug.
When I adopted her at 2, she was 11 lbs. over the next few years, she went up to 15.5 lbs. I managed to get her weight back down through trial and error. Since this year, I feed her all wet, and she’s consistently weighed 12 lbs. Recently, I’ve been paying attention to her caloric intake, because I was afraid of underfeeding her. My grandma is always saying she seems skinny. Anyways, I’ve been aiming around 220 ~ 240, but she rarely eats that much in a day.
I know a lot of people say this, but I think she’s naturally a larger framed kitty. Her chest is 15 inches, and from knee to ankle is 5 inches. Those various body score charts online are weird to me. Juliette’s primordial pouch and chest/belly fur hangs low, so it’s hard to tell by sight. Sometimes, from certain angles, I think she’s slim. But then other times, I look at her and worry that she seems chubby lol.
Here are pics/video for reference!
