Winslow was a cat with a problem. The rescue tabby in South
Philadelphia was seriously overweight. On the advice of her vet, Winslow’s
human Kate started feeding him only prescribed amounts, twice a day. Winslow,
as you might imagine, found his new diet horribly restrictive. He would wander
through the house loudly proclaiming his frustration. Kate realized if she only
fed him in the morning and the evening, she would never hear the end of it. She
also noticed her cat was interested in a toy piano. So, she worked out a deal
with Winslow. Kate now splits the day’s rations into smaller portions. When
Winslow wants a snack, all he has to do is play a few notes. You can hear his “tunes”
on YouTube and Spotify, but Winslow doesn’t care about that. He’s just happy to
have a bit more control over his mealtimes. And the really good news? He’s gradually
losing weight.
