I took my cat to be weighed yesterday and the vet nurse said she's overweight because she can't easily palpate her ribs. She's 11 months old and weighs 4kg. The thing is that I thought Ragdolls were supposed to be chunkier than most other cats anyway. Obviously I don't want her to be overweight but I also don't want to be giving her diet food if the way she is is normal for her. We don't overfeed her - she has about 60grams of Applaws dry food and sometimes half a pouch of wet food. The vet nurse didn't seem to know much about ragdolls.
I'll post a picture so you can see what you think.
