They could also just have one of the big breeds like a skogkatt or a Maine coon which can easily get a lot heavier than that without being unhealthy at all
Also own a 21lb cat. He is just big. But also a little overweight.
He’s on a diet with automatic feeder, but he has massive food anxiety. (We found him as a starving kitten) So we can only reduce his intake to the point of maintaining weight. If we restrict it too much, he stresses out and overgrooms himself to the point of bleeding 😔
TWELVE POUND ???
It’s not that bad. Depending on their natural size, I don’t think they’re overweight until 13-14.

I had a huge cat once that was 18lbs, but he was legit the size of a smol human.
Edit: Here he is with a small, 7lb cat, for scale
Flame point Persian checks out those fuckers are huge we had a 21 lb male growing up. He wasn’t even fat he was just huge.
Was always silly watching the 6 lb tabby sleep with him.
10/10 would own again, he was the best cat ever

My small cat is only 10 pounds. What’s so capital tense about 12?
maybe I just don’t know what pounds are
it’s like a kilogram but more expensive
thank you
This comment chain has me chuckling.
2.2 pounds is a kilo btw so a 12 lb cat isn’t like, GIANT, but it’s pretty dang big.
I remembered something like that. Thank you for providing conversion accuracy. Yes, it’s a pretty big cat,… bigger than any cat I’ve known
