Resumo

No mundo todo, a obesidade é reconhecida com uma condição de risco para saúde. Esta é caracterizada como uma condição de balanço energético positivo e excessiva formação de tecido adiposo com consequências diretas na qualidade de vida e bem estar dos animais. Neste trabalho foram utilizados 36 gatos obesos da rotina clínica do hospital veterinário Professor Sylvio Barbosa Cardoso, onde obteve-se desses animais prontuário clínico com histórico e anamnese, questionário respondido pelos tutores a respeito da rotina desses animais e exame físico completo. Este trabalho evidencia os principais fatores de risco que levam os gatos a desenvolverem a obesidade e comorbidades.
