Axel, the ‘sumo wrestler’ cat, was tipping the scales at 43 pounds, and thus surrendered to a shelter due to his extreme weight, far exceeding the typical eight pounds for most cats and even the 13 pounds of larger breeds.
Rescued by Ferdinand and Friends and fostered by director Christina, Axel faced significant health issues, including arthritis from the strain of his weight, requiring special equipment like oversized scales. Despite these challenges, Axel is now on a successful weight loss journey, gaining attention and support on Instagram and TikTok under the stage name Biggie Smalls.
Christina, his owner hopes that the cat’s progress offers hope and inspiration for others dealing with overweight pets, and his Instagram page provides valuable resources and a comprehensive guide to help transform obese cats into healthier, happier animals.
