A total of 539 pure-bred and seventy-five cats without a pedigree were weighed and scored at cat shows or in veterinary surgeries. Data from normal-weight cats with a body condition score (BCS) of 5 (ideal) were only used. Breeds were grouped into five classes. For female cats, the mean weight for these groups were as follows: very light (2.8 kg); light (3.2 kg); medium (3.5 kg); large (4.0 kg); giant (4.9) kg. For male cats, the corresponding values were 3.6, 4.2, 4.3, 5.1 and 6.1 kg. Siamese/Oriental Shorthair were identified as a very light breed, the Norwegian Forest and the Siberian Cat as a large breed and the Maine Coon as a giant breed. Males and females of the same breed did not always belong to the same class. In some breeds, individuals of the same sex were found in two different classes. The percentage of intact overweight cats (BCS >5) was low (7 % of intact males, 3 % of intact females). Incidence of overweight in neutered cats was 50 % in males and 38 % in females. Among pedigreed cats, there were differences in the incidence of overweight in neutered cats: high in Norwegian Forest Cats (males 75 %, females 50 %) and low in Siamese/Oriental Shorthair Cats (males 25 %, females 1 %). Cats with a BCS of 6, 7 and 8 had on average 120, 154 and 214 % of the normal weight of their breed, respectively.
共有 539 只纯种猫和 75 只无 pedigree 猫在猫展或兽医诊所称重和评分。只有体重正常（体况评分 BCS 为 5）的猫的数据被用于分析。这些猫的品种被分为五类。对于雌性猫，这些组的平均体重如下：极轻（2.8 公斤）；轻（3.2 公斤）；中（3.5 公斤）；大（4.0 公斤）；巨型（4.9）公斤。对于雄性猫，相应的值分别为 3.6、4.2、4.3、5.1 和 6.1 公斤。暹罗/东方短毛猫被鉴定为极轻的品种，挪威森林猫和西伯利亚猫为大型品种，缅因猫为巨型品种。同一品种的公猫和母猫并不总是属于同一类别。在某些品种中，同一性别的个体被发现属于两个不同的类别。未绝育的超重猫（BCS >5）的比例较低（未绝育的雄性猫占 7%，未绝育的雌性猫占 3%）。绝育猫超重的发生率为雄性猫 50%，雌性猫 38%。在纯种猫中，绝育猫超重的发生率存在差异：挪威森林猫（雄性猫 75%，雌性猫 50%）较高，暹罗/东方短毛猫（雄性猫 25%，雌性猫 1%）较低。体况评分 BCS 为 6、7 和 8 的猫的体重分别比其品种的正常体重平均高出 120%、154%和 214%。
