    Hi Sher,
    I brought Maisie to the vet Fri. for her yearly checkup. She weighed 8.8 lbs. My vet said she was definitely overweight by 1 to 1 and a half lbs. She told me she could feel her ribs but had to press in some. She said you are supposedly to be able to feel their ribs with just the feeling of skin over the bone. She said normal is just a slight ways off from seeing their ribs. I thankyou so much for responding so promptly to my questions. I really appreciate your help. To me, maisie did not seem to have very much body fat. We are watching her diet now, but she always be on the higher side of standard if not a little over.

    Thanks again,
    Michelle
