Remember the 40-pound cat in Virginia who found his furever home last week? He's a total dude, pretty confident, and he's doing just fine.

Kay Ford adopted the 6-year-old cat, named Patches, after Richmond Animal Care and Control posted about him on April 19. He weighed 40.3 pounds when the facility posted him online.

She took him to the veterinarian Tuesday, where he weighed in at 38.8 pounds, Ford said, but many scales are calibrated differently so she has ordered one to weigh him weekly at home.

Patches is seeing a certified feline specialist and his diet is pretty experimental right now, she said. He is a picky eater but seems to like pâté and liver.

  1. Thank you for the video, I found out that investing is not for everybody, you just need a strong stomach too see your portfolio go down. It might be wiser for a novice to start with copy trading investing, but it is not easy. To invest in growth stocks it is another level, definitely you need to know what are you doing.

    1. @Kerttu ValliI’m really interested, does she work with clients outside the USA, I’m from Australia?

    2. @Binh Diep Yes she works with people all over the world, she’s the best you can ever come across.

    3. I’m happy to see Mrs Karen Gaye Gray mentioned, she is recognized worldwide, my husband recommended her to me after investing £19000 and she has been a blessing to us.

    4. I’ve seen different recommendations about Mrs Karen Gaye Gray, she must be very exceptional for people to recommend her. Thank you so much for the help, i will look into it.

    5. Her trading strategy is also working for me at the moment. I’m pushing it already up $33,000 in profits so far…

  2. Of course the pantry became Patches’ safe place. I’m sure everywhere Patches goes the pantry is his safe place.
