Hmmm...

So as you all may or may not know, I have a 2 and a half year old kitty named Keropppi.

So, Keroppi has always been a pretty fluffy kitty but never been a fat kitty.

Well, I've noticed he really is pretty skinny. Like I can feel a lot of his bones and things.

He eats, poops, sleeps, and does everything else like a normal, healthy kitty.

Should I be worried?

I feed him wetfood and that seems to put some weight on but also I have to suffer with smelly poop.

Any suggestions?

2 and 1/2 is kind of young to feel bones. Can you feel his backbone when you pet him down his back? If so, please get him a check-up. I'm a vet assistant, and that level of thinness is what I judge to be usually unhealthy. Get him tested for Feline Leukemia and Feline AIDS. If he's negative, have him vaccinated for them. Both if he's allowed outdoors, or just Feluk if he's strictly indoors. Good luck!
