A big fat Russian cat which is probably the fattest cat in the world will miss her chance to enter the Guinness book of World Records due to the closure of that category in the record books. Katy, a five-year-old Siamese which weighs 50 pounds (more than the average six-year-old boy) is widely recognized as the fattest living cat in the world. However, Guinness refused to recognize the achievement as they are no longer accepting applicants in that category. A spokesperson from Guinness explained that they do not want to encourage people to overfeed their pets and created big fat beasts just for the sake of the record book. According to her owners, Katy doesn’t actually eat that much, but ballooned to her current size after they fed her hormones to stop her from mating. Now, they say, Katy has absolutely no interest in sex and only cares about food.
