I was very worried about my little guy's weight the first few months I had him and was always asking the vet about it. He was only "suppose" to be 3.5 lbs but by almost a year he is just a little over 6 lbs. The vet always tells me the same thing, if you can see the curvature of their hips (right where their tummy ends and their hind legs begin) then they are not overweight. If they start to look like a sausage with no indentation there then maybe I should cut back on the treats a little. Being so small I think their weight can fluctuate very easily so even small adjustments in their diet can cause an increase or decrease in weight.
