Obese cats could be the fault of it’s owner not stimulating the cat with enough playtime, but perhaps not every case.

Obese cats are the fault of overfeeding. Full stop. Solutions like this only exist for the owners to shift responsibility off of themselves.

And you know what? If that means more cats have a better quality of life, I'm all for it. But at the end of the day the real solution is always going to be moderating your cat's food intake.
