In March 2004, a tiny grey and white kitty was born in Ohio. Thankfully, I rescued him from the Buckeye state in October of that year and brought him to a new home in good ol’ KY. Boy, the time has flown by - hard to believe he’s 4 already. And he’s definitely grown in that time.

For his birthday, I took him to the vet. (He didn’t like that gift so much…) He weighed in at 15.9 lbs last year. This year…drum roll…he lost weight! His weight is down to 15.8 lbs. Okay, okay…so it’s not that much of a loss, but at least he didn’t gain any weight. He’s not a small breed cat, apparently, so he’ll never be down to 7 lbs again, but the vet said he could still stand to lose about 3 lbs.

I don’t think I can embarrass a cat, but I thought I’d pull up some pics from Smokey’s youth. Man, he used to be a tiny little thing!
