R.I.P. Meow, and Gizmo, the Cat Made Entirely of Parts from Other Cats [VIDEO]

Meow is in kitty cat heaven. Meow, the 39-pound cat whose weight struggles made national headlines, died Saturday afternoon at the Santa Fe Animal Shelter and Humane Society. He was about 2 years old.His considerable size and sweet demeanor warmed the hearts of television-audiences everywhere as he made appearances on both ‘Today’ and the ‘Anderson’ show, whose host was particularly taken with the feline.

Meow reminded me of a rather large cat we have at home named Gizmo. Gizmo was a cute little kitty, but as she got older, she decided she like cheeseburgers and cookies. Because of her calico pattern, we often say that Gizmo is the can made entirely of parts from other cats. Here is the plus-sized Gizmo.
