    Guinness Book of Records used to have that type of record years ago . It might still have it. I think it was above 21 then.

    God that is shocking old! Happy Birthday to Kitty. Havn't heard of a cat that old no. Just enjoy the time you have left with her and don't forget to take lots of pictures and maybe a little of her on camcorder, my pet died fairly recently and I will always regret not having more to remember him by.

    Awww bless, great age!! Be interesting to hear if anyone else has had a cat live that long. My one up home is 16 so there's hope for her yet lol.

    I always treat her to some cat milk :D

    My Cat is 22 in August, had her all my life, mam got her a month after i was born, i will be crushed when she dies. She just sits there now like a fur ball but she was a great cat.

    How does one prove to the world how old a cat is? I mean if you wanted to have her put in the record books like guinness. Just curious..

    Anyway Thats old and a testiment to your care i would imagine. Well done. What do you feed her?

    Wow.... Happy birthday to your kit, that's an incredible age. What's the key to so many years ?! Treasure every day that you have with her. One of our kits vanished ten days ago without trace and we are heartbroken. Our searches have yielded nothing. This guy never wandered so we just can't understand it.
