    Cold Kitty
    Although my cat is overweight, he seems to be cold all the time. He lays on the heating register. I have seen small dogs do this but never a cat. What gives??

    My cat was a chunky thing, but he often would seek a warm spot. Sometimes cuddling with my dog, other times laying in the sun. It sounds completely normal to me.

    All my pets are the same way. Every one of them loves to lay in the sun or under the blankets. I think its just a comfort zone thing. My solution is to cuddle.
