I started mixing extra whey into her food, small amounts at first, just to get her used to the taste, and slightly more every meal. Right now, she’s eating about four meals of 50% cat food and 50% whey powder a day, about 50g protein total, which, for a 5kg cat, is equivalent to a human eating about 750g of protein a day.

The last three months I got her started on creatine, which she hasn’t seemed to noticed. 2-3g per day, sprinkled on top of her food.

My cat has this knitted sweater thing (I live in a cold climate, so cats often wear these things outside), to which I attached small weights. Mainly fishing sinkers. I attached them one by one, so that she wouldn’t notice the additional weight. By now, my cat is wearing this 2.5kg knitted sweater around outside, climbing trees, running around, normal cat stuff.

I also feed her vitamin D, fish oil, and a multivitamin, crushed up into her water bowl.

In addition to the weighted vest training, I’ve started my cat on climbing this large tree in my backyard (three sets of five climbs up and down, enticing her with food), and I managed to figure out a way to make her do sort of a crude bench press by turning her upside down and pushing down on her paws (three sets of 8-10 reps).

My cat has made decent gains so far. Her forelimbs are noticeably bigger, and her chest has increased in size too. A little extra fat (probably around 15% atm), but I’m planning on putting her on an EC stack and maybe Yohimbine HCL.

    For anyone who doesn't know; This is a pasta. No one is actually breeding super-swole cats.

    Assuming this isn't a bit, be very very careful cutting a cat's body fat. It's easy for cats to get fatty liver when they lose fat weight too quickly.

    I just taught my cat to hunt using a rifle.

    He’s strong enough to carry the 22.

      Intentionally turning a super predator into a yoked super predator can’t be good for the local wildlife.

        I've been experimentally feeding HGH to the birds in my back yards via the bird feeders, and you would not believe the circumference of this robin's neck. If they breed yoked cats we're gonna hypertrophy some song birds.

          Species specific unfortunately, but on the plus side robin growth hormone is almost certainly less regulated.

              I had to look it up myself because I vaguely remembered the first H being “human” and had to ask whether they just called it that or not.

    The cat my parents rmhad when I was born looked like this. He was a fucking badass and absolutely OWNED my toddler ass on a regular basis until I figured out how to treat cranky animals well. We got to be pals later on but this dude was Heathcliff AF. I totally get cats and make instant friends with most animals now and having an irritable and stole cat that could genuinely tske me down with a pounce as a wee kid helped. It was never anything too bad, I might have gotten a quick 'fuck off' scratch when I was being a little shit, any random violence to prove he was my big brother and therefore better than me was mostly him throwing his weird for a cat amount of weight around, it was like randomly getting wacked with a pillow on occasion.
