Sibelius weighed 8.96kg on his first visit to the weight clinic in January 09.  He needed to undergo dental work which involves a general anaesthetic and need to be under 8kg before having this done.  A target weight of 6.36kg was agreed and Royal Canin obesity diet prescribed.

The target weight is not set in stone and is reviewed as the slimmer looses weight.

Sibelius is just under the agreed target weight and has now moved on to the post slimming phase of the diet.  His maintenance ration will be reviewed each fortnight until we are happy he stays at a stable weight.

Sibelius lost 33.8% of his body weight.

Cuddles weighed 7kg in March this year.  A target weight of 5kg was agreed and she was put on Royal Canin feline obesity wet and dry food.  A daily ration was calculated based on the desired calorie intake.

With cats the weight loss is more gradual than in dogs - about 40g per visit is usual. 

Within a month of the diet, Cuddles' owners were noticing her being more active and she had already lost 0.92kg 

To date Cuddles has now lost 2.34kg and is just below her target weight weighing in at 4.96kg.  She has moved on to the post diet phase where her calorie intake is being increased.  She is still coming for fortnightly weight checks to ensure that she doesn't put too much weight on.

Cuddles has lost a total of 33.4% of her body weight
