11 Dieting Pets Enjoying Their Cheat Day

In this Instagram age, pets are under more and more pressure to stay fit and trim.  How’s that picture of your cat in a pirate costume supposed to go viral if he can’t even fit into his costume? 

Luckily, even the strictest of dieters are allowed to have a cheat day every once in a while.  

Here are 11 animals who are taking their cheat days very seriously: 

1. Sprinkles Have No Calories, Right?

Rover’s been trying to drink low calorie, gluten free beer, but it just isn’t the same.

Carrot cookies are mostly vegetables, so you can have as many as you like, right?

This dog isn’t putting up with any of that imitation bacon stuff.  He’s only interested in the real deal. 

So let your pets indulge occasionally.  It’s the least you can do, considering they have to watch you eat delicious human food all day long.
