Mickey says "good meow-ning"

We weighed him yesterday, by weighing us and then holding him to weigh again. Almost 9kg. You wouldn't think it when he's curled up. I checked some charts online and he doesn't seem to be overweight, but he is due for his vaccination so I'll ask the vet.

He eats less than the sachets say to (apparently a 4kg cat should eat three whole sachets!) because he has access to food all the time and he doesn't eat constantly. Anyway, he's healthy, he likes to play "chasey-hide-and-pounce", so he's keeping me fit too running around the apartment. I do want to invest in one of those cat-wheels, a biiiiig one, but I'm afraid it would be a waste if he isn't interested.

I love him.

Don't listen Mickey. You're not fat, just plump. And very cute.
