Eliot - How thin is too thin??

[Laura's Babies]

His background could have left him with the genes to be skinny. Then, I don't believe Samantha will ever be a fat cat due to how starved she was most of her life, up until I got her.

BUT, I would bring it up at the vets and if he is holding his own and not loosing any, I wouldn't worry.

My sister has cat that looks just like Eliot, her name is Destiny and she has always been thin too. She weighs about 5 1/2 - 6 lbs. Her vet said that she is healthy, some cats are just smaller than others. My Lulu is very tiny too - couldn't tell by looking, all that fur is decieving. Hope everything goes well at the vets.

I had the same concern with my 7 month old Abigayle. She is a siamese mix. When I took her to the vet this week to get fixed, I asked about her weight. She is 5 lbs 4 ounces. The vet said that was normal for a siamese cat. She said she was healthy and as long as she eats well there is no reason to be concerned.

As the Previous threads have said Some Cats are going to be on the thin side.
My Precious,Diane,and Rocca are all about 7 Pounds.
You could try Eliot on some Kitten Food,to see if that helps.
