Wow Shani she has really grown!!! You were not kidding...
I agree with taking her off the kitten food (high fat, protein, calories) and switching to weight control formula. Now is the best time to do this as fat cats are notorious for developing diabetes. I have fed my cats Science Diet for seven years with no supplemental food of any kind and they have done wonderful. I recommend the R/D (reducing diet) or the W/D (weight diet) both are excellent foods that allow your cat to consume the same amount or more but have half the calories. Another tip for overweight pets is not to free feed them. This means pouring only the directed amount for her weight (as specified by the food bag) once daily. This will definately help with the weight loss. Good luck!!
