5 pounds gained in a week for a cat could be a serious problem...
Though usually LOSING weight is an indication of a serious problem.. for example, my cat lost 5 pounds over a couple of months (which was a huge weight loss for a cat) and I had her checked out... turned out that she has diabetes. I got her on insulin and now after about 8 months, she has gained a good amount of weight back and more importantly she is much more happy and active.
Weight gain could be a symptom of thyroid problems....
