This cat is probably large enough to qualify as his own personal gravity well:
A retiree from Virginia has adopted a chonky 40.3 pound feline after an advertisement about the enormous animal went viral.
Kay Ford told The Post that her daughter contacted her about the fat cat, named Patches, after Richmond Animal Care and Control posted an adoption ad on Wednesday morning.
"Chonky" doesn't cover it. This cat is chonky like the Empire State Building is "tall." It's just a whole new class of qualifier.
How does a cat get that fat?
(My first thought is that it probably just ate a bunch of other cats.)
Good news though, that lady holding him (Katy Ford) adopted his gargantuan butt.
Feline-loving Ford, who already owns a kitty named Wellesley, quickly contacted the RACC to express her interest.
Fortunately, the retiree lives just a short drive from the shelter, which made her a front-runner for the adoption.
"I knew that I was in a position to help him," she told The Post. "I'm retired, I'm home a lot. I just am completely motivated and just feel like I have the time to help him achieve to get to this point where he and Wellesley are just playing together and having a wonderful time and he's happy and healthy."
Just hours later, Ford arrived at the animal shelter for a meet-and-greet with Patches — and it was love at first sight.
But for real, it looks like this lady is hauling a small horse back home.
She even has a bed of straw back there for him!
