A cat moves the internet with its exercise routine. The feline called Cinderblock has gone viral on the internet due to morbid obesity, but it has been put under a tough training routine to lose the extra pounds. Cinderblock is originally from Washington, USA and is enrolled in a weight reduction program. However, the feline has taken a vague attitude and only uses one leg to complete the activity while meowing. The video generated in a short time about 10,000 visits and comments of all kinds. In the video, the cat is unwilling to perform the exercises that put him, as it only moves one of its legs on the conveyor belt in which the chubby animal is. It is evident that Cinderblock is not used to doing some kind of exercise, since he can barely move and prefer to eat.

The previous owner was struggling with health problems and caring for his father, who suffers from dementia, Kiffney said.

Kiffney and other staff members have used an underwater treadmill to help provide physical rehabilitation for Cinderblock. The hospital shared a Facebook video of Cinderblock meowing while lazily using the treadmill on Oct. 19. The video has been viewed more than 2.2 million times. This and subsequent videos also made it to Reddit's home page. Cinderblock was the inspiration for a hot topic on Twitter on Friday night. Artist Alex Plante, 28, of Winnipeg, Manitoba, created a series of Cinderblock illustrations they've liked and retwitted thousands of times.

Kiffney also attributes Cinderblock's viral fame to the number of people who relate to not wanting to exercise. She hopes Cinderblock's plight will inspire people to keep their pets
healthy. Today, the "feline" effect runs its course. In recent months, the meme of a woman yelling at a feline at a table was one of the most shared of the year. Twitter users didn't miss the opportunity and displayed all their art.The meme appeared in mid-May and consisted of an image composed of other photos. On the one hand, the image of a woman who screams and is in a state of crisis that corresponds to the reality show The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.
