chonk

When you think of cats, you think of majestic and elegant beauty, do you not? Well, there are definitely cats that are elegant and graceful, most cats actually are both without trying at all. 

Then, there are cats like this... Adorable chonkers who make us do a double-take. Sitting as if they're people, and even wearing a human expression, we can't help but feel a little confused when looking at these images. 

Overall, we do like the images and have decided to be on the hunt for even more cats sitting like so. It has brought us a great deal of happiness. (Honestly, we like an any exposing a cat's fluffy soft belly)

Sit free, cats of the world! Don't let society tell you what's acceptable! 

Suffolk Owl Sanctuary has deemed a rescued owl "too fat to fly" when it was brought in from a ditch and thought to be injured... turns out, the owl wasn't injured and simply too chonky to fly. 

The little owl, known as a Athene noctua, was examined by staff and they found it to be "simply extremely obese" and "unable to fly effectively" as a result of that. 

So even so the owl isn't injury, it's still good that it's at the sanctuary where they can regulate its diet and he it achieve a more "natural weight" and thus, able to fly once more. 

Good luck, little guy! We believe in you!

Fat Fred is living the chonky dream.

Imgur shared the viral post on Facebook, an image of signs taped to a glass door that shine the spotlight on their glorious chonk -- Fred. 

From what it sounds like, Fred is a very good, chonky boy, and sorry everyone, he is not up for adoption. 

However, as the bottom sign mentions, smaller models are available! 

The popular and continuously growing Facebook group, 'THIS CAT IS C H O N K Y' now has billboards representing the group, and chonks, in NYC, LA, SF, and Chicago! 

If you are unfamiliar with this group, and you are a cat lover, it's probably the best page on Facebook ever created. With nearly half a million followers, a page dedicated to chonky cats from all over the world. 

This beautiful group of people are constantly sharing their cats, love for cats, and every so often console and grieve along side those who have recently lost their furbaby.

Winter is coming up and these adorably fat squirrels are all ready for it! They have just stuffed their cheeks with all the possible acorns they could find. All of them!  

The power of the internet! Mr. B. first made headlines when Morris Animal Refuge posted his image on Twitter, asking users if they could guess his weight, but more importantly, if anyone out there could provide this magnificent jumbo-sized cat a loving home? 

One user who saw the post instantly feel in love with Mr B (full name BeeJay), and reached out to Morris Animal Refuge to officially make him part of their family! Mr. B's new owners have already set up an Instagram account for those who need to get their Mr. B fix. They have also claimed that Mr. B has plenty to share and that he is doing great. 

Congrats, Mr. B!

When a user asked on the closest Facebook group, 'THIS CAT IS C H O N K Y' for someone to please photoshop this fantastic picture of his furbaby Critter, the internet came through! 

Also, according to the original poster and Critter's human, Critter had to go to the vet, as pictured but was completely fine, other than being a confirmed a chonky boi.
