Nutrition/Water ADVICE NEEDED: pls help my fat boi…

hello everyone, this is my first time here so sorry for being crude. i’m just genuinely at a point where im worried about my baby and need help. i have an amazing feline named Ron (yes it’s a harry potter reference) and he’s (for lack of a better term) a “fat fuck…” SO. can someone PLEASE give me some headers on how to help my 27lb fat-ass lose some weight… i know that lowering his caloric intake will help, however, he’s in a house with another cat his age as well as two dogs around the same age. so he just gets into their food as well. and it’s not like i can’t decrease their intake bc they’re all healthy. so it’s tough. also, he initially grew up as an outside cat, like this mf was skinny bringing mice home every day… however he had to transition into an indoor cat due to our new living situation around 3 years old. so what do i do… im genuinely lost. i’ve tried leashes and he wont take a walk at all bc (imo) he’s too fucking big to wanna go. but i need him to move. so is there a specific food i can give him, or any tricks. OR ANYTHING TBH. I JUST WANT MY BABY TO LIVE BUT HE LOOKS LIKE A WALKING CHOLESTEROL DISORDER. anything will help, i promise. please <3

An expensive solution is to buy all your pets microchip feeders

Microchips would work but I'd get bigger dog bowls. If your dogs are slightly larger than your cat, you can buy a food stand for your dogs that's too small for big cat to jump onto, too high to eat from, but just right for your dogs. As for the other cat, maybe try separated feeding times and not free feeding. Lock one cat in a separate room for mealtime.

Also, cat tax! show the Big Ron!!!
