  • GLP-1s in some ways have given me my life back. I’m so happy I no longer dwell or fixate on food the way I used to. My health has improved. I can do exercises, sport activities that I couldn’t do when I was obese.

    If we can help obese cats stop fixating on food too, I think that could be a good thing.

    But it also raises some questions to me. Obese cats could be the fault of it’s owner not stimulating the cat with enough playtime, but perhaps not every case.

    I feel bad that a cat would have to go to a vet every six months to get an implant in them. I wonder if an injection or oral supplement is an option for cats - or if an implant was preferred because humans may try to obtain GLP-1s for themselves using their cats.

    Also, the only way I bonded with my mother’s cat was with churu treats. If her cat didn’t crave treats the way she does, would we still have bonded? When her cat escapes the house, one sure way to get the cat back in the house is to bribe it with treats. Would that stop working?

    Obesity in pets should not be celebrated. It’s a sad thing.
