What is the ideal weight for a female british short hair cat?

My female british short hair cat (kookie to be exact =D) weighs 5kg. And yes she is neutered. Is she overweight or underweight or just right? She is approximately 1 and a half years old.What is the ideal weight for a female british short hair cat?
Cats are all different, just like humans and other animals.



A large built big boned cat will weigh more than a small boned petite cat.



I have big and tall built cats that are a muscular and healthy 19 pounds... and on the other end of the scale I have a teeny tiny boned cat who weighs in at a meer 7 pounds yet she is very healthy too. Based on their individual body structure I could never compare them.



It's best to assess your cats weight by it's body condition and not compared to other cats.



Here's a chart to help you do that...

She is in just right weight for a one and a half year old cat.

they are suppose to be weighing 4-5 kg at that age.
Ideal weight my vet told me is 4-5kg so she is fine.
