15公斤「胖球橘貓」被領養…新奴才控管熱量　每天陪牠上樓梯運動 | 辦公室廢柴 | 鍵盤大檸檬

家裡有養寵物的人，可能關心貓貓狗狗的健康還更甚自己的身體狀況吧XDD 雖然牠們肥肥胖胖的樣子很可愛，但過胖也會造成心血管疾病減少壽命。

在外國就有一對情侶領養了一隻重量級的胖貓Bronson，牠的體重竟然高達15公斤（普通貓咪約3～5公斤）！而這對貓奴也決定幫牠進行減重計畫。

We have a ton of scratching poles around the house, but bronson doesn’t use any vertical poles and instead only scratches his claws on the carpet. I believe it’s so the he doesn’t need to sit up. We ended up getting him this card board thing from the pet store. I don’t see the name on the product anywhere but he really likes it. He lays on it and looks like a furry pilot. . . #catsofinstagram #cats_of_instagram #cats_of_the_world #weightlossjourney #weightloss #cats_of_world #bufftabby #cutecats #cuteness #catstagram #catloversclub #cutestcatever #goingplaces #instagramers #catagram #catlover #catlovers #weightlossmotivation #photooftheday #instalike #igers #picoftheday #instadaily #cats #cat #bestoftheday #swag #kittens #kittensofinstagram #catenrichment

Mike Wilson和他的女友Megan Hanneman職業是專門設計室內的壁掛式貓家具，而他們也養有兩隻可愛的小貓咪來幫他們測試成品。

某天這對情侶來到當地的收容所參觀，Bronson龐大的身軀馬上就吸引他們的注意，於是開始思考若是把牠帶回家、幫牠減肥會是件很棒的事。

隔天他們再次回到收容所，並且跟收容所的員工了解，原來Bronson的前主人過世了才被帶到這。情侶倆猜想牠的前主人可能是位老人，不停地餵牠才導致這隻年僅3歲的貓咪胖成這樣。

Here are a couple videos of failed attempts at today’s exercise routine. Last month we started carrying Bronson downstairs once a day so that to get back to his favorite place (which is the bed) he would need to make the trip up the stairs. After a few times we started worrying about him doing damage to his joints on the stairs and decided to hold off until he loses a little more weight. We’ve posted a couple videos of him going up and down the stairs in the past, if you would like to have a look. After that we started instead moving his food dish around the room as he’s eating to promote walking. When Bronson walks, it’s only to reach his destination and then he lays back down. So right now “eat walking” is half his exercise and playing with toys while laying down is his other half. Bronson currently has an upper respiratory infection, so even playing with toys is a little much. After about 30 seconds he starts sneezing and breathing heavy. We spoke with his vet about this today and they suggested to be on the safe side, and to hold off a little until he starts feeling better. #exercisemotivation #exercise #exerciseroutine #weightloss #weightlossjourney #weightlosstransformationv

Bronson非常熱情可愛，也與他們家中的兩隻貓咪相處融洽。情侶倆也立刻為牠量身訂做減肥課程，如果貓咪減肥太快也可能因為脂肪肝而致命，所以必須特別注意。

Bronson被控制每天只攝取375卡洛里的熱量，一半來自乾糧、一半來自濕食。每天配合運動來消耗身體的脂肪，從每天玩20分鐘玩具到訓練牠上下樓梯，或者是用糧食吸引牠在房間裡多走幾步。
