Aunty thinks that the cat is too fat so puts him on a diet of dried cat biscuits and broccoli. the cat does not like this, so wanders down to the nearby school each school day and the children give him food from their lunch boxes so he doesn't lose any weight. When the family get home from holiday their Aunty tells them that he didn't eat the food she had given him, but he was still fat! But the young girl in the family called Katie said " you are not too fat, you are my cuddly cat.
