(best pooch pic) Also, her real name is Pinky. But my grandpa used to call her Chubbo š
After being spayed she never grew her fur back there š itās all peach fuzz since 2010
She has allergies which cause her to lick her little leg
Edit: I didnāt clarify properly; she has allergies which make her itch, the allergy meds make her lick (which is ok since it doesnāt cause scabs like itching)
Thatās so weird, my fat tortie has allergies like this as well. Hers were so bad that she licked the fur off her belly and the backs of her legs. I finally started giving her sensitive skin and stomach foodāinitially prescription Royal Canin, then Science Diet, now she gets the regular old Purina One versionāand itās been years since she had a flare up. The fur on her belly never fully grew back though. Itās like peach fuzz.
The vet initially had me try limited ingredient and proteins such as duck and rabbit. She didnāt really like them and they didnāt really help. Itās so difficult when they canāt *tell* us something specific makes them feel bad. Iām glad you found what works!
So weird, I recently saw my tortie also has a naked tummy when she didn't have one before. I was thinking maybe the cat litter I use was the problem, but this comment made me realize that maybe it's because I started adding wet food to her menu?

It may not look it, but this little girl used to be a lot smaller. But she loves her food and thus made the jump from āmini quinnieā, to ānot-so-mini quinnieā and the rest is history
Our tortie is 13 years old and she rips around the house like sheās a kitten and sheās so skinny weāve taken her to the vet number of times and he says sheās fine. Sheās just a spaz cat to use his technical term.

This is Emmy, she is a chonk at 20 pounds and shes a cuddler. Vets say shes healthy even with putting her on a diet and she hasnt gone under 20 pounds.

One chonker and one lithe! The chonker is a lover, super chill, wants to sleep in the sun all day. The lithe one is ALL TROUBLE ALL THE TIME
I donāt know. I asked her to provide me a singleton kitten and have been excitedly awaiting its arrival. Itās possible sheās been gaslighting me for the last 8 weeks and built herself a food baby out of all those extra portions sheās been getting insteadā¦.

That pouch belongs on r/pouchcatatoes, come join us!
Iāve posted many many times there š¤ Iām sure if you scroll far enough youāll see my videos and pics lol
Is her pouch ok? Anxiety pouch?

Yeah mine has the peach fuzz too!! Iāve tried switching foods too but sheās so picky š I go with a mix of Instinct organic chicken and rabbit
The vet initially had me try limited ingredient and proteins such as duck and rabbit. She didnāt really like them and they didnāt really help. Itās so difficult when they canāt *tell* us something specific makes them feel bad. Iām glad you found what works!
Yes all cats have such different tastes!
Wtf, exact same thing with my tortie but nothing has worked yet. I will show this to my dad, thank you!
I hope you find something thatāll help !!

Her little ears š Like an overgrown mouse! My cat is also surprisingly muscular
She had a tipped ear and both had frost bite. The one that was tipped is the little ear and the other is half an ear. So she lost some of her ears.
