It's not just the Americans getting fat

It's the Germans, too - at least their cats. CNN has a story about a cat who was brought to an animal shelter weighing in at about 41 lbs. He was reportedly fed 4 lbs of food every day by his elderly human. Most people probably don't eat that much! The pleasantly plump kitty is now on a diet and living with one of the shelter employees.

I thought my cat was getting chunky, but this one takes the cake... and the pie, and the pork chops, and anything else it can get its paws on. Sorry, I couldn't resist.
