Would you know if your pet is overweight? Would it surprise you to know that 58 percent of cats and 54 percent of dogs are overweight? Or that 90 percent of pet parents of overweight cats and a whopping 95 percent of pet parents of overweight dogs incorrectly identified their pets as normal weight?
The first step in solving any issue is recognizing there’s a problem. Pets who weigh more than they should are more prone to health issues such as diabetes, cancer, osteoarthritis and high blood pressure. And a difference of only a few ounces can tip the scales in your pet’s favor.
