He's not quite a year. Was gaining a pound a month. Vet was upset with me because he said he has no waist at all...shaped like a paper towel roll. Very cylinder shaped. I keep telling everyone it's all hair but when I gave him a bath he doesn't have a waist.
Just felt his ribs...oops can't feel them so he is FAT! 😩
