I realized that my father had dramatically mellowed with age.
Smoke is still around, and is really fat. Like olympic sized fat. Like 25 pounds. His belly drags on the ground when he walks. He's on a special diet, and my dad and stepmom love him to pieces.

If you want your cat to lose weight, stop feeding him cat food.
I put my cat on an a home made diet - chicken and fish and veggies and she has lost weight nicely. I had previously tried special "diet cat food" and she didn't lose an ounce.
A vet that I took her to explained to me that all cat food was poison for cats since it is made with lots of filler, ash, carbs, and crap that they can't use for anything else.
I started on a home made diet and her fur is better, her kidney levels have improved, and she no longer has dandruff.
Cat food = death for a cat.
