Portia is my older girl.. she's 15 and a half. She has always been a small cat..she's a long haired torty who came to me as a farm kitten, as she has attitude.. purrs while she slaps me! If she gets wet she's about the size of a large rat!
She maxed out at about 7.5 pounds but recently I noticed she looked smaller (hard to tell under her fur) and this morning I weighed her ...I'm now bearing the scars on my arms! She is only 6 pounds :/
She had her jabs last week and the vet said she was in good condition for her age (she certainly put up a fight ) but he didn't weigh her.
She's never been a big eater..she likes little, often, and preferably fresh prawns, tuna etc... She decided she wanted my breakfast this morning and delicately removed a slice of bacon from my plate!
Any suggestions? Should I be worried or is this normal? She's my oldest cat so I've not navigated elderly moggies before!
