Ke noʻonoʻo nei e pili ana i nā pōpoki chubby e hoʻāʻo nei e ʻūlū i loko o nā pahu cereal a me nā ʻīlio roly-poly e moe ana i ka ʻōpū e kakali ana no kahi ʻōpala e ʻakaʻaka paha ʻoe. Akā ʻaʻole hoʻomākeʻaka ka momona o nā holoholona.

Ma kahi o ka hapakolu o nā ʻīlio a me nā pōpoki i ka US i ʻoi aku ka momona, e like me ka 2017 State of Pet Health Petfield Pet-Health kokoke i ka pākēneka o nā mākua U.S. he nui loa, e like me nā Centers for Disease Control and Prevent. Ua hoʻonui ʻia kēlā helu ma 169 pakeneka no nā pōpoki a me 158 pākēneka no nā ʻīlio i nā makahiki he 10 i hala. A e like me nā kānaka, ʻo ka momona ka mea e hoʻopilikia ai i nā holoholona no nā pilikia olakino. No nā ʻīlio, hiki i ka keu kaupaona ke hoʻopili i nā maʻi orthopedic, nā maʻi hanu, a me ka hoʻomau ʻole o ka urinary. A no nā pōpoki, hiki ke hoʻopilikia i ka maʻi diabetes, nā maʻi orthopedic, a me nā maʻi hanu.

Ua kuhi ʻo Banfield i kēia mau helu helu ma ke kālailai ʻana i nā ʻīlio 2.5 miliona a me nā pōpoki he 505,000 i ʻike ʻia ma nā Hale Hōʻikeʻike ʻo Banfield ma 2016. Eia nō naʻe, ua hōʻike ʻia kahi ʻikepili a kekahi hui e ʻoi aku ana ka maikaʻi o ka pilikia. ʻO ka Association for Pet Obesity Prevention (APOP) -ʻo ia, ʻae, he mea maoli-manaʻo ʻia ma kahi o 30 pākēneka o nā pōpoki. momona akā he 58 pakeneka nui loa kaona kaumaha. No nā ʻīlio, ua hōʻea kēlā mau helu i ka 20 pakeneka a me 53 pakeneka. (He mea pono e hoʻomaopopo i ka liʻiliʻi o kā lākou noi ʻana i ka momona momona o ka makahiki, e nānā ana ma kahi o 1,224 ʻīlio a me nā pōpoki.)

ʻAʻole like me nā kānaka, ʻaʻole hoʻowalewale ʻia nā ʻīlio a me nā pōpoki e ka pizza i ka pō a i ʻole Netflix binges ma mua o ka ʻai ʻana i nā mea kanu a hele i ka hale haʻuki. No laila, no ke aha lā i ʻoi aku ai ka nui o nā holoholona ma mua o ka wā ma mua. ʻO nā mea like ke kumu o ka momona o kānaka: overfeeding and underexercising, e like me ka hōʻike a Banfield. (ʻOiai ua ʻike ʻoe i ka loaʻa ʻana o ka ʻīlio me 15 mau pono olakino?)

A i ka wā e hele ai mākou e hopu i kahi pōʻai pō mai ka hale ʻai, kā lākou liʻiliʻi "hiki ke loaʻa iaʻu kekahi?!" ʻoluʻolu loa ka helehelena ke pale aku. Inā haʻaheo ʻoe iā Fluffy a i ʻole Fido, ʻo ia ka manawa e nānā ai i ke kaumaha o kāu furbaby. Hāʻawi ka infographic kōkua o Banfield ma lalo nei i nā alakaʻi no ke kaumaha maʻamau no ka ʻīlio a i ʻole ka pōpoki a me ka nui o kā lākou meaʻai. ʻoiaʻiʻo pono (ʻoiai ehia mau manawa a lākou e haʻi aku ai iā lākou e pono i kahi lāʻau ʻē aʻe).
