Progress

A few more ounces are down :) Slowly getting there. Here's a video of a toy found at the dollar store, that kept the entire menagerie busy for a few hours. Cheap entertainment! And helps blow calories to.

Exercise!

Now that Midnight is slowly losing weight, we want to keep it up. Exercise is a key to any weight loss program, but to make a cat exercise it has to be fun! It is always voluntary, so make it worth their while. Midnight enjoys running laps around the apartment (chasing a laser pointer) and doing "jumping jacks" with a dangling feather. Making him work for his food is also a great way to get him moving. Hiding food in tunnels and under or on top of boxes makes him stretch, wiggle, and jump.

Videos to come! There are also some awesome cat exercising articles with plenty of other ideas. Check them out! http://www.catchannel.com/behavior/playtime/article_5361.aspx , http://www.ehow.com/how_2145249_exercise-indoor-cat.html
