I am sorry to post here with the news that Meow – the biggest cat in the world (2st 9lbs) - has passed on shortly after receiving nationwide publicity in the USA over his attempts to slim.
Metro reports (on the link below) that the Santa Fe Animal Shelter and Humane Society of New Mexico bought Meow a scratching post with a carpeted ring attached but he couldn't even get his head through :eek:. According to Metro, Meow, did, however, manage to walk up the stairs in search of affection
.
Rest In Peace Meow.

no its not
Yes it is.
Hotdogs was one of the foods he was given by his previous owner....no im not joking. :mad:
Sorry but some people, elderly or not should not have pets if they don`t know how to take care of them properly - the poor cat was only 2years old

The sad thing is that it died from an obesity related problem.
If it weren't so fat, may well still be alive.
why ??
The owners were guilty of ill-treating the animal, end of. To get that much food inside a cat within 2 years, they must have been shovelling it in.
Moral of the story is, if Granny's got Alzheimer's, don't let her keep a cat. It won't end well. :cool:
Why do you not think that the passing of the cat is sad?
The Santa Fe Animal Shelter and Humane Society of New Mexico obviously did all they could for him. I had hoped that he would have lived and slimmed down.
no it wasn't my cat so why should i thimk it is sad
cos he was only two, poor Meow
Spot on!
And it is sad that an animal is abused in this way -- even if the owners' intentions were founded in bizarre affection for the cat.
