It comes down to calory intake. It's the human who feeds the cat. Cats don't become obese from hunting. Medicine could help to mitigate problems which arise from the owners inability to take care of his pet - which is a good thing for the cat's quality of life.
it comes down to taking and animal, castrating it, and not allowing it outside to be a cat. They get obese because they are bored and sedentary.
