I'll give them both a squish for ya, lol. They are quite squishable these days! I've tried all kinds of diet foods, then EVO thinking protein would be less weight gain since less carbs. Nooooooo.... my skinny girls got skinnier, but my chubby boys got chubbier!Calloway was not ROUND when he got here, lol, he actually used to fit behind the fridge. Don't think he can these days!
Well, on the foster deal, believe me, I would love to keep them both (Furbee has been with me for 3 years and still hates everyone. She will snuggle up to me on rare occasions, but would much prefer being an only cat).
I love Zach, to pieces.He is the best boy in the world, he really is. He is by my side constantly, he loves to talk, he loves to cuddle, he's my buddy to snuggle with on the sofa.
What is not good is how much of a bully he is with the other cats. He will corner them and make them howl, he chases them relentlessly if he is in a bad mood. He can be really nasty. Zach just wants to be Alpha, and it makes everyone else unhappy. Zach can be very aggressive with my 14yr old cat, Honey, and it gets me so upset. Honey is half his weight and so meek. He also used to cuddle next to me, but since Zach, that's not happening. Makes me sad. I miss cuddling with all the cats. So, Zach does have a time out room, because he just pisses me off to no end at times, and I decided to give the rest of the crew a break from the bully.
Calloway... I could keep him forever. He is a love. Sweet tempered and just a wonderful boy. He behaves really well with the rest of the kitties too, and many times will end up being the mediator between Zach and another cat, and he'll give Zach a good swat when he's being a pain. I just want to get his weight back down, I have no idea how he got this chubby, but man, it's worse trying to get him to lose weight than it is me losing weight!
In my heart they are all mine, but in reality, I know that Zach and Furbee would do better in their own homes. That will happen, some day, but until then they have a home with me and I love them no matter what.
