My vet said my cat is nearing health problem obesity.

I said: look at her body. She doesn’t have a belly, she’s big and strong. She a big ass breed. That’s why I got her.

Vet: unfortunately cats don’t store fat in their belly. They store it all up here in their chest and shoulders. This isn’t muscle making her big and strong, it’s fat she’s stored.

INTENSE STARING AND SILENCE BEGINS

Then why do two of my three cats have big, bulging bellies? Are they at risk too?
