Wilford The Round Boy That Will Steal Your Heart

Raise your hand if you’ve ever jokingly said “I wish I could be a cat, cause then I could eat all I want, and the chubbier I become the cuter people will think I am. Oh well, perhaps in my next life that’ll happen.” It’s no secret people love chubby cats, floofy round boys, absolute units of cuteness. But it should also be said that being overweight isn’t great for any animal and being obese is actually a great strain on their health, just like it is for humans. Today, in the spirit of round boys, we’re going to share with you the story of Wilford.

Willford is a big pound cat with a big personality. Unfortunately for him, his carers could no longer look after him and have left him at a shelter. When he arrived there he weighed 30 pounds, his fur was matter all over, he was dirty, scared and very confused. Any change is stressful for a cat, but being left without a home and his carers in a cat and dog shelter must’ve been really hard for him.

Luckily Jen and Ian from Pokey Pot Pie were willing to foster him and took Wilford in. Jen and Ian are veterans when it comes to fostering cats, they’ve been doing it for years and they have a 95% success rate when it comes to finding a home for the kitties they foster. And if you wonder what happens to the other 5% – don’t worry, they found a home too. They just stayed to live with Jen and Ian.
