Quick update on Philly’s diet. He is doing well but eating a TON of paper. My gosh, we’ve never seen anything like it! In these pictures he is shaved. He was um…how should I say it…having a little difficulty with hygiene due to his size so off went the fur!

Anyway, we are happy to announce his total loss thus far….drum roll please…….one pound!!!! I say you can tell it but Adam says I’m nuts as he still needs to lose 13 more but hey, it’s a start!

We put one of our cats in the picture with him to kind of put things in perspective.

Keep up the good work, Philly…

Philly

You probably know that my Nana is fighting terminal lung cancer. She lives in Florida and my mother has been down there for the past couple of months to be with her. We are taking care of my mother’s two cats; Philly and Delphia-yes, say the two names fast and together and it does sound like what you are thinking.

Anyway, I wanted to post a picture of Philly. Poor guy has a slight weight problem. Adam and I took him to our vet for a consultation and have him on a very strict diet. About an hour before meal time when he starts to get hungry he starts eating paper, literally.

He started the diet the second week of January and the good news is that he has lost: 4 ounces!

Way to go Philly.
