According to reports on Chinese social media platform Sina, squirrels at feeding stations near West Lake in Hang Zhou have been overfed by generous tourists.
Reported by Hang Zhou local media, tourists at the nearby lake like to feed these friendly cuties while taking pictures with them. Sometimes they even have to queue because of the overwhelming crowd.

'Corn on stick' is one of the more popular foods to feed the creatures.
One Weibo user posted a picture of one squirrel in 2014 when they still seemed "fit and swift":

But the latest pictures show that the squirrels apparently have put on some weight.
Local reports have urged people not to overfeed the animals as overfeeding may cause digestion and other health problems.

Can you see the resemblance to 'Totoro' now?
