because you are either overfeeding your cat or it could be finding extra food some where else. It may need more room to exercise if your feeding her/him correctly so she/he may not be burning enough calories. If there is plenty of room and you are feeding him/her the appropriate amount your cat may be sick or depressed and not getting enough exercise or attention in some cases.
