I think my cat is really sick
I have a non-pedigree black and white cat (not that that helps in any way) and he's 8 years old. He's REALLY fat. Extremely. And I'm afraid he's suffering from obesity (if there is such a thing in cats) he's HUGE. And I can't do anything about it. He's castrated and all he ever does is eat. I've tried to make him more active, give him less food and regulate his diet. I even bought a new kitten to play with! He still eats a lot :( Now, over the past week...he's been coughing and choking. I don't know what it is he's choking on. Whenever he coughs...he coughs up some kind of white....spit...I don't know. It's like a bit of a foam thing..Is this something really bad? Are there any people with more cat experience out there? :S please ;_; I know the obvious thing to do is visit a pet..but see..I'm only 15! And my parents don't really have the financial strength to do this. Please..
Also..is there some kind of way in which to make a VERY lazy cat ...excercise more? he doesn't play with toys.

i think you need to feed him on less food. and buy some special diatory food for him ( e.g. low in fat food.) genraly feed him biscuits 2 - 3 times a day. ( not big portions ) and a fresh suply of water avalable thru day and night. if the food is still therre after 20 mins of feeding then clean bowls and dispose of the food. and DONT feed him/her untill the next feeding time. to get your cat more active keep it outsinde allot and play with him/her. with various activities, just chasing him round the gareden will do hehe.

If you think your cat is sick, the thing you should be doing is taking him to vet; not asking this question.

i say you take him to the vet ASAP. also, how is he eating more if you dont give him as much food? and try some new toys??
