Exclusive! First Pictures Of Garfield, The 40-Pound Cat
Garfield showed up at a Long Island, NY shelter last week after his owner died. This big blob of fur weighs a whopping 40lbs and just needs some love.
Currently holding the title of Fattest Cat in a U.S. Animal Shelter, Garfield’s girth is greater than both SpongeBob (30lbs) and the famed Meow from Santa Fe (R.I.P.).
After his elder owner passed away, neighbors brought Garfield into the North Shore Animal League. The shelter is currently attempting to place Garfield with his owner’s relatives before they open this pudgeball up to the public to adopt. They plan on feeding him a restricted diet of dry food to help him shed the pounds.
BuzzFeed went to go check out this flabby feline, and we can confirm he has a great personality.
4. Staffers think he got fat by eating people food (possibly lasagna?)
9. He was too heavy for this staffer to pick up…
13. Garfield wasn’t all that interested in playing with his toys

Thanks to the North Shore Animal League - check them out to adopt lots of cute normal sized puppies and kitties!

Poor fatty. :( I hope they can get him to become more active.
Cats really aren’t supposed to eat most human food - grains, certain vegetables, etc. I’m sure his owner thought she was doing something nice for him by giving him (a lot of, apparently) her food, but what she’s done is put his life at serious risk. -

Chris Wyman a year agoI sent this to a friend and he said, “Do you realize that if I adopted this cat I would have 63 pounds of cat spread over two cats?” So! Who wants to start a garage band called “Pounds of Cat?”
