Dances With Woofs! asked:
I was just curious.
My four big boys are :
Paul Newman,age 8: 20 lbs. ( He has blue eyes like Paul Newman,but you can’t tell in this picture.)
Moby,age 5: 16 lbs.
Linus,age 18 months: 16 lbs. ( next to my GSD so you can see how big he is)
Monty,age 5 and Moby’s brother: 15 lbs.
The other 11 are normal – sized. Paul is the only one who is FAT. Moby and Monty are chubby,but they are also big-boned. Linus is just BIG!
So how much does your largest cat weigh,and is it a purebred or an ordinary domestic “moggy”? Mine are all domestic short or longhairs.
I guess we all have some fat kitties!!
Pretty Kitty,your cats are all gorgeous!
Edit:Wow,everyone has sucj gorgeous cats!
Presouzkitty – Paul does look like a ragdoll and it’s funny,because his mother was a feral black cat and the other kittens in the litter are a black and white longhair with short legs and a smushed nose,like aPersian,a red tabby with white,a brown mackerel tabby with white and a calico.None of them are nearly as big as Paul,except for the brown tabby,and he is about 15 lbs.The other three are normal – sized.

My 10 year old black and white domestic shorthair is 14lbs =)
My mom’s cat weighed 22 lbs at one point. LOL. The vet imposed a mandatory diet, so he’s much healthier these days, but for many years he was pleasantly plump … :D
PS: He is an ordinary domestic black cat.
Lulu is 11 months old and weighs 9lbs. She is Siamese/Ragdoll
I’m not sure exactly how much my Maggie weighs, I think it was 18 pounds at one point. He looks kind of like Paul Newman or Monty shape wise. We named him Maggie because he was such a beautiful baby we thought he was a girl, and he looked so cute in his little pink collar! Sometimes we call him or Mr. Maggie, but he’ll always be my big handsome boy. He’s nine now.
Oh yeah, he’s a regular tabby mutt, he picked us when he was just a wee little puppy in a box full of babies outside the supermarket.
The largest cat is a Maine Coon. While other cats may top their weight, they are probably unhealthy. A healthy, male, Maine Coon cat can reach up to 20lbs or more in a 5 year period.
My cat Xander is a Maine Coon and he’s already 8 lbs and almost a year old.
Check out the source I listed.
Willie is 2 years old and weighs 17 pounds
Cornbread is 4 years old and weighs 12 pounds
Sam is 3 years old and weighs 10 pounds
Smokey, 5 weighs 10 pounds
Peanut is 1 and weighs 12 pounds
Shasta is 5 and weighs 13 pounds
Allie is 2 and weighs 7 pounds
Rocky is the baby at 10 months old. He weighs 9 pounds.
No purebreds here, just mutts who needed a home and suckered me in :)
EDIT: Thanks :)
I have two boys, both Domestic Shorthairs. My oldest will be 4 in May and weighs 12lbs. My youngest will be 2 in August and weighs 10lbs.
‘Sweety Face’ is part Ragdoll and ?
18 pounds..
Pretty girl is 6lbs…petite..
Vincent Van Gogh is pretty chunky. He was 15 pounds last time I weighed him. I just put him on a diet.
He doesn’t look too bad in this picture. Black is a slimming color, you know.
These are all domestic short hairs. It’s been a few months since the last mass weight in.
Remy is my fat kitty. He topped out at 18 lbs but he’s lost some weight. He’s still got a ways to go but he’s already friskier.
Here he is “nursing” our youngest kitty last summer:
My oldest is Goldberg, he’s 14 lbs and a pretty much ideal size. But still too big for this nap spot:
My only girl, Helena, a petite 9 lbs:
Rogue, also about 9 lbs, maybe 9.5
I haven’t weighed Indy for awhile but he should be a little smaller than 9 lbs. He’s long and lean but only a year old, so he will still fill out a bit more.
And finally, Fred who is about 11 lbs. I’m not totally sure since he has a fit when anyone picks him up. He’s not even quite 11 months old yet but his growth has slowed down so I have no idea how big he’ll be.
Here he is using my box of future cat litter bags as a bed:

There’s my Cheech, the devil kitty :) But so cute at the same time. He’s 4, and he’s the ex-feral cat I sometimes talk about. He’s about 7 1/2- 8 1/2 lbs… it varies, I think he’s more like 9 right now.

There’s my Punky Brewster :D She’s probably a Ragdoll (according to paperwork original owners filled out at the vet before they abandoned her) but I don’t have papers. She’s about 3 1/2. She now weighs 11 lbs. (She was 13 a few weeks ago before switching to diet food)

And why not throw in my bunny who thinks hes a cat haha (I think any bunny who terrorizes cats, steals their food and uses their litterbox should count)
His name is Pancake and he’s a 7 month old mini-lop. He’s about 7 pounds right now, a biiiiggg bunny :)
Hmmm did I get a thumbs down because my cats are not fat? haha
My kitten is huge. her name is Binnie and she is onky 1yr old. shes not fat but just allaround HUGE
!!! she weighs 20LBS!!!!!!!!!!! shes huge.
Iris who is 3 weighs about 16 lbs. She doesn’t eat much though! I give my three cats 1 cup twice a day to share.. so they really aren’t getting enough to get that fat! She must have a very low metabolism :)
Here’s Silver she’s 5 years old, about 15 lbs, but she’s going on a low carbohydrate diet so shes looking good!
Well, I have only one cat with me right now!
His name is Ollie and at 6 months old he is about 9 pounds!
Here’s a picture of him with my two dogs:
He’s a regular old Domestic Short hair from the pound. He only has one eye!
We are only aloud to have one cat. (My cat is known to “kill” other cats, or at least try to. He killed our neighbors) But he fights with our otherneighbors cat all the time. Can you say territorial? Lol.
His name is Quinto, and is about 16 lbs. I have NO clue what breed he is.
Max (My 6 month old Lab) and Quinto:

I have just one cat, her name is Bella she is a domestic longhair she is a year and a half old. She is 11lbs she isn’t fat but just a big cat.
Your Paul Newman looks like a rag doll!! I have 3 rag doll mixes, one is diabetic she is about 15 pounds and I spend a lot of time making sure she eats right, no dry food, that’s how she got it in the first place I think, She eats low carbs canned and gets her shots on time every day!! I test her blood levels each day to ensure she isn’t getting to much insulin in her shot. NOW that’s kitty love! No life for me! ha ha.. Presouz is 14 pounds and Sami is 12 pounds wish I knew how to upload some photos!!
