Vet Hospital Explains the 'Chonk Chart' Feline Sizing System To Help Keep Cats Healthy
There are some passionate veterinarians who truly love what they do, and then there's Dr. Jen Lassler from Alicia Pet Care. This Mission Viejo, California veterinary clinic regularly makes informational videos for pet owners, and now they're back with a clip on the infamous feline 'chonk chart.'
Dr. Jen couldn't be more clever with the puns and analogies she uses to talk about feline weight. It can be a touchy subject for some kitties, but as she explains--a healthy weight is vital to a healthy cat!

Okay, we are officially obsessed with Dr. Lassler. She is so funny and clever, and she has an ease about her that makes a serious subject (feline health) as approachable as learning the ABC's. She broke the news about Arlo the heckin' chonker so politely, too! From the lint roller microphone to the hilarious quip about dogs, t this video is an absolute masterpiece.
It's also a great way to teach cat owners how important their pet's weight can be to their health! Just a few lifestyle changes can make a major difference--just ask @waywardson67! She commented, "My girl was a hefty chonk and I had to get an automatic feeder and weight management food. Now she chomnk with a heckin primordial pouch." Good for her! Moving down the chonk chart is always a good thing, even if the process to get there isn't as pleasant as you'd like.
Feline weight loss can have so many benefits, from skin improvement to better cardiovascular health. Your fur baby might even be around longer if you can help your cat lose weight! If that's not enough motivation, we don't know what is.
