I recently adopted a cat from the local Humane Society. She's in good

Is this true? Is there anything to be done to correct this problem?

Thanks for your help!

All cats have the "belly flap". It's a holdover from their ancient wild
ancestors. In good times they would eat to their heart's content, and any
exess would be stored in the belly flap, also known as a Lion's Pouch. In
lean times, they could subsist, for a short while, on the fat stored there.
