This poor kitten was near death when he was found on roadside by a caring Florida family. They adopted him and nursed him back to health. Much to their surprise, he turned into such a huge fur-ball that they even created an Instagram account for him to share his happy moments. “Silas before and after!” Wrote the family on Instagram. “He was left on the side of the road, and near death. We gave him a forever home.” They never expected this little guy to turn out like this!

Side-by-side comparison
He may be very well fed, but he's not obese. He looks maybe a little overweight, but nothing crucial. IMO. He just looks like a big happy boy.

Awwww....He is a pure breed ..Turkish Angora. I have a cat that looks just like him. They do look fat with all that fluffy fur and ruff!
The poor baby! Beautiful and healthy cat after it was taken care of...God bless those people who nursed it back to health. <3
I really think people who save abandoned animals are serious angels on earth. Great story. Lovely outcome. Thank you.
What a transformation ! The toad turned into Prince Charming. I notice he has blue eyes; is he deaf ? Females normally are, but I don't know about males.
I think, from a hoomin point of view, of course, that Silas is an extremely beautiful cat. I am so pleased that the couple in Florida found him and nursed him back to glowing health!
Very much fluffier, but I think there are some cheeseburgers in there as well.
I got my kitty off the mean streets of a high desert CA. town. He walked into the used bookstore where I was buying Patrick O'Brian novels and said, plaintively, "Meow?" Patrick is fat and sassy now.
I found my kitty Patrick on the mean streets of a high desert town. He walked into the used bookstore where I was buying Patrick O'Brian novels and said, plantively, "Meow." He was in okay shape, but he's fat a sassy now.
Now that is mud in the eyes of the horrible people that abandoned this precious fluffball!
Awesome! I LOVE her little pink BEAN TOES!! See what good food, medical care and LOVE can accomplish? Yay!! Good job HOOMANS! Good job....
he is a bit on the chubby side... but seriously.... look how freakin happy he looks lol...
White cats with blue eyes have a high chance of being deaf (60-80%). White cats without blue eyes have a higher chance than normal but it's only 10-20%. Source: http://icatcare.org/advice/cat-health/inherited-deafness-white-cats

As amazing as this story is, it is a pet peeve of mine when people use the "word" Hoomins.
Na , there is a little bit an over weight there too ! But never mind ! He is lovely and thank for the family who saved him !
HOOMINS? WTF IS THAT?! Please don't tell me that's slang for humans.
Sadly I think it is. It's some kind of internet thing: when you go on internet, be stupid as an illiterate, spit on proper langage and vocabulary and invent new words.

does need to lose a few pounds... just change to lower calorie food would be helpful :)
How do you know he's not just so fluffy he looks a bit tubby? Also, male cats can weigh anywhere between 9-11lbs fully grown.
Load More Replies...that poor baby is overweight. that is more than fluffiness and it is very unhealthy for the cat. 2 extra pounds on a cat can mean about 2 years shorter a life. or more.
