Is it true that most men don't like cats? I don't just like my cats, I love them to the point where I constantly pat, stroke and squeeze them. I make it my mission each day to make them two little purring balls of content. They're my babies. I never grow tired of them.

Booby has an obesity problem though. A kinda serious one. For the first time in our lives so far, I'm able to be strict and keep him to a diet. He knows how to pout and look sad. He knows how to make me melt. But I don't have a choice anymore - what, with killing him with kindness and so on. It started to become apparent when I'd pick him up and he'd weigh about as much as a small child. His huge body now waddles, which is not the grace I expect from a cat. I must confess to feeding him treats and more, not to mention filling his bowl up with massive amounts of cat food because I know if I don't I'll end up with a cranky little guy. So, now he constantly bothers me.

I tend to get annoyed if he constantly pesters me for food. I'm getting over that too, and it's important because that's another thing which has made me crack and run for the tuna and chicken. Now, when he gets under my feet in the kitchen, I pat him and scratch his chin. I simply must stick to this diet.
