PORKY puss Keith is so fat his owner has put child locks on cupboards to stop him stealing food.

       Sara Matthews, 47, spent ￡2,500 on blood tests to find out why her formerly homeless pet is always hungry — but it is still a mystery.

       And despite even locking the fridge, the famished feline still raids neighbours’ bins — even for pizza.

       The eight-year-old now weighs 24lbs — twice that of an average moggie.

       Sara, from Bristol, said: “He’d clamber in when you opened the fridge. And it didn’t matter what handle we had on a cupboard, he would find a way in.

       “He’s a really happy, active cat. I don’t think he sees weight as an issue.”

       When Keith was first rescued he was undernourished and had stomach problems so had to be put on a special diet.

       But he soon started putting on weight by stealing other cats’ food.

       Sara said: “He would eat anything, even weird things like vegetables and pizza crusts by going through our bins and neighbours' rubbish.

       “He would clamber in when you opened the fridge and I was worried he'd get trapped in without us noticing.

       “And it didn’t matter what handle we had on a cupboard he would find a way in.

       "We to had fit child locks and put his food in plastic tubs with click down lids.”
