Domestic cats usually live 12-18 years. Occasionally, fluffy ones live up to 20 years.
But among the representatives of the cat family there are super-long-livers.
The real record holder is a cat named Cream Puff from the United States of America. She lived 38 years.
This achievement is mentioned in the Guinness Book of Records.
What is known about the cat Cream Puff
She was born in 1967 in the American state of Texas.
Cream Puff passed away in the summer of 2005. The cat's total lifespan was 38 years and 3 days.
It is possible that the reason for the pet's longevity was its special diet.
It is believed that Cream Puff's owner fed him eggs, bacon and broccoli.
The oldest cat alive today is Flossie, who lives in the UK. She is now 28 years old. It is possible that she will break the record for longest life among cats.
But Cream Puff will definitely remain the record holder in the coming years.
