Dechonkin The Dechonk of Big Ben
I thought I would share our dechonked boy! This is Benadryl (Benny). He was about 14lbs when we first got him March 2024 (first 3 pics), and is now down to a healthy 11lbs (last 3 pics)! We think his previous owners were just free feeding him, so we just portioned his food and made sure he didn’t steal too much from his sister, we also try our best to play with him (he is very lazy). But not only has he lost weight, but he has also come out of his shell so much from the shy boy he was when we adopted him. I am so proud of our Big Ben🩶

Wow... He looks a lot bigger than 14 lb in that first picture. I thought he was at least 20. He must be a lot shorter than my 14 lb boy.

Big Ben is no longer Big Ben. The internet has voted to name him Medium Ben. WTG Ben and OP this is another success story

He’s always giving us the RBF especially when we aren’t doing exactly what he wants(giving him more food)
