Cat so fat he got stuck in doggy door

After one too many trips to the cat bowl he ended up stuck in her doggy door.

Jadwiga Drozdek adores her kitties, all six of them.

They burn through food.

"Extra food we have in the garage for the cats," she said.

But Jadwiga knew it shouldn't go this fast.

"Probably four months ago we recognized that the food was disappearing very quick. We said, ‘Gosh, you know, they're always eating the same amount,’ so I don't understand why," she said.

It had to be another cat, coming-in through the doggie-door.

No matter what Jadwiga did, she couldn't catch the culprit.

That is, until the culprit's eating caught up with him.

"And come to the door with the belly. He was stuck!" she said.

Tightly wedged into the doggie door was "Goliath."

"Hilarious! And I was looking and I was laughing! I was like, what's he trying to accomplish!" said Drozdek.

He couldn't get himself out because all that eating had pushed him up to a comfy 20-pounds.

"My husband says, ‘It's your fault ‘cause you decided to put it in the garage,’" Drozdek said.

Drozdek took Goliath to the humane society where he's settling-in. Vets say he perfectly healthy, even though he could lose a few pounds.

Now he just waits for someone to come get him, dreaming of some new and exotic kitty buffet.
