This fat cat went to fat camp and now she’s a star, but it doesn’t look like she had a good time doing it.
Laila is a cat from Gainesville, Fla., that is apparently obsessed with food. A rescue, she was reportedly found close to starvation. Since then, she’s developed a healthy appetite.
At her heaviest, Laila weighed in at 23 pounds, Fox 35 reports. According to her owners, she couldn’t “jump on anything.” Obviously, this is a problem that needed to be fixed. Her owners took her to a vet, who came up with a surprising solution.
Once a week, Laila visits ‘fat camp’ at the University of Florida. There, she goes through a series of workouts specifically designed to help her lose weight. These include running on the treadmill and even going for a swim. Of course, being a cat, Laila doesn’t look too thrilled with either of these, especially the water exercises.
