Fattest Cats

Here is a selection of some more fattest cats over 40 lbs which seems to be the threshold at which a claim to be the fattest can be made. As can be seen by the dates, the idea of the fattest cat in the world was a bit of a fad, a phase that has now past. It is a shallow idea to the detriment of the cat.
