This is what happens if you overfeed your cat: the struggle on video

If the cat is fat, it is not only bad for its health, it can literally put its life in danger, as you can see in the video.

Just as it’s not good for you, it’s not good for your pet to be overweight. In addition to increasing the risk of numerous health problems, the extra pounds can sometimes put the animal in life-threatening situations. As you can see in the following footage.

Poor fat cat loses an important tool

Whiskers play a crucial role in a cat’s life: they use them to scan their environment, gathering valuable information. One of these functions is to measure width. A cat’s whiskers are usually as wide as the cat itself. So if they can touch the edges with their whiskers, they can pass through.

There is a significant connection between whisker length and body size

However, if the animal has several extra pounds, its broad dimensions no longer match the measure (since whiskers shed, but their length doesn’t increase). As a result, they can no longer exploit this practical function. And if, as shown in the video, they get stuck somewhere, they can get injured and become easy prey for stray dogs, among other dangers.

As a responsible owner, it is your task to properly feed your cat and regulate its weight. In this article, we give useful advice on how to feed your pet.
