I've already covered ways you can help your cat lose weight in my previous post. However, if you have one overweight cat in a multiple-cat household, it's hard to tell who's eating what, making it a bit trickier to help that one cat lose weight.
Here are some suggestions you can try:
1) If all cats are healthy, switch from free-feeding to meal-feeding. Only put food down at specific times of day, and pick up whatever isn't eaten.
2) If any cats are on a special diet, feed them separately in a room with a closed door, or a cat carrier.
3) You can feed all of your cats separately at meal time, and give an extra meal to the skinny cats if needed.
4) Try putting food for the skinny cats in a room or closet that is only accessible through a small opening just big enough for them to enter, but not the overweight cat.
5) There are cat doors that activate only for a cat who is wearing a special magnetic tag - you can put the tag only on the skinny cats.
