3 BIG CHONK WINNERS!
The following three big winners of our Share Your Chonk contest represent everything it means to be a Chonk — Sass and Mass!
RESER
Meet Reser: 16 pounds of pure confidence and zero shame. When he lands, the house knows. When he uses the litter box… so do the neighbors. Toys? Beneath him. Royal lounging and dramatic entrances? His specialty. Certified Chonk. Undisputed king.
ARTHUR
In true orange cat fashion, he has the grace and agility of a Chonk. When he decides to join anyone in bed, you will be PBC = Pinned By Chonk. Weighing in at a stunning 20 pounds, he truly enjoys his snacks.
milo
Milo fits the definition of “Chonk” purrfectly. His larger than life physique mixed with his air of royalty cat-titude definitely qualifies him. When he wants something he will stare you down until his needs are met. He is convinced that this is his house and I am his servant. 🙂
