Lincoln, the cat who was once large and in charge, and the inspiration for the name of this blog, is no more.
...Don't worry, he's still alive, but a shell of his former fat self. He was about 16 pounds when I got him over 10 years ago (May 2002). During that first year he ballooned to over 30 pounds, eventually topping out at 37 at his heaviest (the video below is of him getting weighed at the vet's office).
He weighed 24 pounds last summer, after going from 36 to 32 the previous summer. Blood work was done, and the vet couldn't find anything wrong with him to account for his big weight loss.
Lincoln is between 12-13 years old now, and is doing fine, enjoying trips out onto the patio, putting up with loud kids and grabby toddlers, and big dogs who occasionally try to chase him. Long may he reign in the Henn House!
