Catty Corpulence

Photo from the Chicago Tribune, reproduced here with the presumption of fair use; I'll take it down if anyone objects.

This cat was found wandering (or "waddling," as all the news accounts have it) in New Jersey. She weighs 44 pounds - two less than the all-time world record. That's a couple pounds more than my son the Tiger, who's a substantial five-year-old person.

Wow.

"Princess Chunk," as rescue workers have nicknamed her, is pictured here with Deborah Wright, who's acting as her foster mom.
