Eating the cats food was Gizmo problem when he started putting weight on, well that and us feeding him too much! I cut down his treats, stopped him eating the cat food, especially the biscuits, and put him on Trophy diet food - www.trophypetfoods.co.uk
He looks much better now he has his waist back
