My cat just isn't losing the weight

I kicked my cat out for pissing on clothes, she lost weight in no time at all. But now that I brought her back in, she’s back up to 20 lbs. She does nothing but eat, sleep, and poop. So, kick him or her out, that’ll do the trick.

Is he an indoor cat? It would be best to let him roam outside in the day, and yes okay, the diet he’s sticking too, but those treats could have a lot more fat-inducing stuff in them than his food. When I dieted my cat, I just let her out all the time for exercise and gave her meals first thing in a morning and last thing at night, with nothing in between (unless she found food on her travels lol) and she lost the weight in no time! Hmm…if your cat is already doing all these things and still not losing weight, I’d say he had an underactive thyroid, which causes animals to bloat and stay fat no matter how much exercise they do, but generally they start to lose fur with that as well. Just a matter of medication sorts it though. xx

Your cat should be allowed to roam outside. If you have clipped his claws then you can’t let him leave your sight!!! He can’t defend himself if he does get into a fight. Just let him roam around in the backyard. You’ll be surprised how much weight he will loose. You can also try feeding him whiskers dry food. I don’t know weather you get it in America??? It’s dry biscuits that come in a big bag. Anyway There are different types Adault, kitten etc. There is also a weight loss one! Remember your not being kind feeding your cat too much. You shouldn’t have difficulty feeling his/her ribs. Good Luck!!

Im Aussie I don’t no what 18 pounds is but I hope all goes well wit ya kitty
