N.J. Fat Cat Living The Good Life

TRENTON, N.J. (AP) ― The tale of Prince Chunk has a happy ending.

The portly feline found last August in Voorhees after his owner lost her home to foreclosure has officially been adopted.

The Damiani family of Washington Township finalized the paperwork in February, though they've been caring for the cat since last summer.

The fluffy white tabby's near-record weight put him in the national spotlight and he appeared on several talk shows and the New York tabloid covers.

Chunk has lost about two pounds, tipping the scales at just over 20 pounds. The family says he gets along great with their kitten and three dogs.

The Damianis are working to establish a foundation to help struggling pet owners avoid giving up their pets due to the financial crisis.
