The meaning of "fat cat" takes on a whole new interpretation in this heartwarming tale. Kay Ford found herself smitten with Patches from the moment she laid eyes on him. It's no surprise really, given that Patches weighs in at an impressive 40.3 pounds – there's simply more cat to love! The story began when Kay's daughter forwarded her a Facebook post from Richmond Animal Care and Control, a local shelter appealing for someone to take on the supersized feline. The post was a witty one, asking if anyone was up for adopting the largest cat in history. And so began a beautiful friendship between Kay and Patches.
