17. Poor baby! so sad that he got this big

Maybe he had some type of health issue that caused him to get this big? I know cats can get chubby if they eat all day (which is SO wrong for carnivores) but maybe he had a thyroid condition or something and couldn't metabolize the food?

NIce that they were trying to put him on a diet, maybe just to much for him.
