Thanks guys! I know my files are huge, I can't figure out why. I think it has something to do with the settings on my digital camera. I just got the stupid thing last week, so who knows if I am using it right!!
Can I just say that Tito was a stray, and then picked up by a local no-kill animal shelter. He was adopted once before me, and the lady RETURNED HIM b/c she said he meowed too much. I can't believe that! he was an 11-wk. old kitten at the time, OF COURSE he's going to meow!!! Some people...
Anyway, thanks Denyce and Barbara and everyone else for your advice. I really appreciate it. Being a first-time cat owner, I have been so obsessive a/b little Tito!! If I have to leave him alone for more than 10 hours or so I worry constantly a/b him, even though I know he sleeps the whole time. I am carefully watching his weight. I was feeding him Iams Kitten food (1/2 cup a day) and he wouldn't even eat it all, but he still somehow developed a little saggy pouch b/w his back legs. So the vet told me to put him on Iams Weight Control, 1/3 cup a day. Well, now he wolfs that down, I guess the weight control food is lighter in his belly or something. He's not fat; if you stand above him and look down you can see his little shape, he doesn't have a lot of fat on him or anything. Is it possible that neutered males just develop a little saggy pouch regardless of their weight?
