A Quick Guide to Dechonking

Introducing our Dechonking Guide, based on the proven plans we use here at the sanctuary, this guide provides step-by-step strategies and practical tips. Please note, this guide offers general advice and is not specific to individual cats—always start by consulting with your vet team before beginning any weight loss program.

Research and Education

We are actively participating in product testing, research, and studies focused on cat obesity to better understand the challenges and solutions surrounding feline weight management. By collaborating with experts in the field, we help test new products and contribute valuable data to advance research on effective weight loss strategies for cats. Our involvement in these efforts allows us to stay at the forefront of feline health and provide the best possible care for the cats in our sanctuary and beyond.
