Strombeek was quite a hit at the vet. All the vet assistants had to come in to ooh and aah at her bowling ball-like physique.
She looks like a cartoon character!
She's built like one of those good luck cats.
Look how round she is!
Let me see her face. Oh my gosh, she doesn't even have a neck!
Dr. Cartlidge was not as taken with her roundness. She was so fat she didn't even feel the needle from her rabies shot!
So now Strombeek is on a vet-mandated diet of wet food only. The vet says it's the kibble that's the villain, that each little niblet is like eating a granola bar. Well, then no wonder she's so fat.
The vet also says that Safeway food isn't any worse than the boutiquey stuff I normally buy. So as soon as we got home I stocked up on Friskies. The vet gave me a list of lower calorie foods, and of course I went with Friskies because of their cool ads.
I notice the first ingredient in many of their canned products is "meat by-product." I guess that means Strombeek is eating old racehorses. Hopefully that will help her lose weight and run fast.
Consider this the "before" picture. (fingers crossed)
