It is impressive that Feathers not only worked his girth up to more than 40 pounds, but also lived to a ripe old age. Go Feathers! Sadly, my card is postally unused without a great tale. Interesting, an idle online search on Feathers turned up a fellow blogger ( Another Enormous Cat with a Postcard of His Own) who owns this card, but with the added bonus that the writing on the back reveals that the people had actually visited Feathers, then 19 and up to 46 lbs. I have a soft spot (so to speak) for cats with spotty noses and this further endears this guy to me. Unlike most fat cats, Feathers seems to wear his weight handsomely and is well proportioned.
Pam’s Pictorama Photo Post: As you can see Feathers is a robust fellow and at 40 pounds an extraordinarily large one.
