Many of the fat pet videos on YouTube have recieved 100,000 or more views. I found one with over a million views. If you’re interested, you can go search for them yourself because I don’t want links to those videos on my site.

There are even pet blogs that hold fat pet contests and ask readers to send in their fat pet pictures.

It’s obvious why it’s wrong to let a pet get dangerously obese. Fat pets are just as unhealthy as fat humans. They have little energy, tons of health problems and will die young. It’s wrong to post videos of fat people online just to make fun of them, and it’s wrong to use fat pets as entertainment as well. Sure, a grossly overweight beagle is kind of cute. But if he literally can’t roll over on his own, it’s not funny. And it’s certainly not OK to reward pet owners for this kind of animal cruelty by watching and laughing at the videos they make. It just encourages other bad pet owners to try to get the same kind of attention.

I know the people who read this blog would never let their pets get as overweight as the animals I’m talking about, so I don’t need to say any more. Thanks for taking good care of your pets!
