That's what they thought in the first place:
Employees at Camden County Animal Shelter called the feline "Captain Chunk." Realizing she was female, the name was quickly changed to "Princess Chunk." Her "foster mom" — shelter volunteer Deborah Wright — calls her "Princess Chunky."

it's good to know he hadn't eaten his former owner.

This doesn't surprise me. We have a 30 pound male plus one of his sisters and his mom. They are normal size cats. Bob The Thundercat is the only big one.

They call him Princess, Princess, fatter than most things,
No one you see, is larger than he,
And we know Princess, lives in a world full of wonder,
Rolling there under, under the tree!
Everyone loves the king of the sea,
Dinner for Princess Chunk soon he will be,
Stalking he will do when children appear,
And how he'll feast when they’re near!
They call him Princess, Princess, fatter than most things,
No one you see, is larger than he,
And we know Princess, lives in a world full of wonder,
Rolling there under, under the tree!

It's a guy? Oh, well, in that case, no big deal.
Posted by: Annie Where-but-here | July 31, 2008 at 02:05 PM
Yeah. At least now he won't be bounced from the Havana nightclub in St Helier, Jersey.
Posted by: CJrun | July 31, 2008 at 02:08 PM
I'm sure he still has some big boobehs.

memo to self:
Do NOT take job sexing cats at the shelter.
Posted by: padraig | July 31, 2008 at 02:29 PM
I'd STILL take him home - he looks like he is such a great cat !

Slow down, you move too fast
We've got to know your rotund past
Just can't seem to find your rib cage bones
Looking for clues and feeling Chunky!
(La,la,la,la,la,la, feline Chunky)
Hello, fur ball, whatcha knowing?
I've come to watch your poundage growing
Ain't ya got no carbs for me?
Doot-in' doo-doo, feline Chunky!
(La,la,la,la,la,la, feline Chunky)
Got no deeds to do, no promises to keep
It's flabby and floppy and ready to sleep
Let the morning time drop all its donuts on me
Chunk, get off me, all is groovy!
(La,la,la,la,la,la, feline Chunky)

Many years ago, I had some friends who owned a silver Persian cat, named Prince. Prince was Stupid with a capital P. In fact, he wouldn't waste time using a litterbox when he could just evacuate where he stood. His hind quarter fur was usually caked with something, so he got frequent baths.
One day, I was visiting while Prince was in the kitchen sink getting scrubbed. And my friend was trying her best to gently pull one of those caked "clumps". Each time she worked on it, Prince would go crazy.
"Mary," I observed, "that's not poop you're pulling on. That's his balls."
She immediately released her hold on said "clump" and Prince (I swear he did) heaved a sigh of relief that someone had educated his mistress about his siutation.

Video just in...

ROTFLMAO, MOTW !
That is so HYSTERICAL !!
Posted by: Telecomdropout | July 31, 2008 at 03:21 PM
My friend had a difficult time composing herself enough to rinse & towel him off because she was blushing and laughing so hard. You know how Persians have that natural pissed off look, too ...

"Chunky" was just bulking up to prepare for his life on the streets. A Tom Cat has to be big enough to intimidate, ya know... And MOTW -- giant SNORK!
Posted by: eilbeback | July 31, 2008 at 03:50 PM
MOTW--please tell me that was not the same sink she did the dishes in.

Someone left the tv here on, on F0x news. I just looked up and it was a story on Princess Chunk. I didn't have the remote handy to turn the sound on, but that is one large furball.

Susan, that's the video I posted above...
Posted by: Steve Haller | July 31, 2008 at 04:41 PM
MOTW, I liked it better with the capital P.
m'ville, I'm sure they were the same hands she uses for the dishes, so....
Posted by: CJrun | July 31, 2008 at 05:04 PM
So what happened, did they roll it around in kitty litter and could not find the spot?
Posted by: MartiniShark | July 31, 2008 at 06:33 PM
*smacks* mshark.
mville, that's exactly what i was wondering. ewwwwww.
and now princess chunky has been renamed jabba the hut.
Posted by: crossgirl | July 31, 2008 at 06:35 PM
Apologies C.G., I tried to soften it, but in hindsight it was a mistake. (Hindsight, heh-heh)
Posted by: MartiniShark | July 31, 2008 at 07:57 PM
MOTW, that is priceless!
Beleive it or not, Prince C. even made it to the local 5:00 news on NBC in New York. You haven't lived until you've seen an embarrassed Sue Simmons trying to claim it was a story about how the bad economy was affecting pet owners!
There were 2-3 promos during the news (which only runs 25 minutes at 5, including commercials) and the cat was on for about 30 seconds.
