cat story.
Rescue cat, found by a (heroic) Bensons 4 Beds delivery man. One eye hanging out of her face. Taken to vets and she sat there in her cage unwanted until we discovered her and claimed her (for she is a PIRATE CAT!)

this is her: b3ta.com/board/9702685

She was very still and timid when we got her. Wouldn't move so much as a whisker and was not very big. Now, however, she is best described as shaped like an egg on legs. She doesn't have much use for money but dear god she will hunt and kill a box of cat treats like the predator she isn't, and if she can't find them? Nothing will remain on any surface likely to be hiding the box. NOTHING! So; she is a wrecking ball for cat treats.

Length? about a foot and a half including tail but she's not far of that as a diameter.

that damned bear called the cops
but she got away with 'time served' and a promise to change her ways.

Killing your cat with kindness.
Overfeeding is the nicest form of animal cruelty.

honestly
we don't overfeed her. she actually eats under what she should for her age and size and only a few biscuity treats on top. We worked it out by the numbers so she is actually sightly under in an attempt to force a diet on her. The GF is an ex vetrinry nurse and knows enough not to overfeed. And it's not like she has other houses feeding her, we've checked. It's baffling unless the spiders are really high in calories.

You ever seen spiders on Weight Watchers diet food lists?
No, massively high in calories. More than 100% fat they are.
