“[You see…](https://youtu.be/yzi3k7K0lFA?si=0bJ-Ec93SmUAwxfY) your cat is suffering from what we vets haven’t found a word for. His condition is typified by total physical inertia, absence of interest in its ambience - what we vets call environment - failure to respond to the conventional external stimuli - a ball of string, a nice juicy mouse, a bird. To be blunt, your cat is in a rut. It’s the old stockbroker syndrome, the suburban fin de siècle ennui, angst, weltschmertz, call it what you will…Oh, and you’re feeding him too much.” ---
