Big-Boned Cats is a term commonly used to refer to the larger members of the genus Felis Catus. "Big-boned"is generally used as a euphemism for being overweight or obese. The idea derives from the excessive politeness in attributing large body size to a massive skeletal structure rather than an over abundance of fat.
In recent years, Big-Boned Cats has come to refer to a subculture that embraces elements of Buddhism, including animal rights, compassion for all beings and joy of living in the moment, with roots in modern cat comedy websites such as bigbonedcats.com and lolcats.com.
