PHOENIX (Arizona) — An Arizona animal shelter has a rather large cat on its hands.
The Maricopa County Animal Care and Control recently received a 36-pound (16kg) cat at one of its shelters in the Phoenix area.
The cat named Meatball is temporarily staying in an office at the shelter because he is too large to fit into a standard kennel.
The cat is not available for adoption.
Instead, the shelter is trying to place him with a rescue organisation that helps overweight cats.
The shelter says Meatball is extremely friendly and says he can comfortably walk despite his weight. AP
