A pet who just celebrated her 32nd birthday might be the oldest living cat in the world.<\/p>\n
Lila Brissett of Norwich, England, sats her cat, Rosie, was born June 1, 1991, and celebrated her 32nd birthday with a salmon cake prepared by a local cat cafe owner.<\/p>\n
“She has honked half of the salmon cake already — I expect she will wake up at lunchtime and eat the rest,” Brissett told the Norwich Evening News. “There won’t be any left by lunchtime, don’t you worry.”<\/p>\n
Brissett adopted Rosie when she was only a kitten and said the feline has only been to the vet twice — once to be spayed in 1991, and a second time about five years ago to be treated for a cyst.<\/p>\n
Brissett said she has been in touch with Guinness World Records about having Rosie certified as the oldest cat living.<\/p>\n
The current record holder, a fellow England resident named Flossie, was 26 years and 316 days old when she was certified in November 2022.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A pet celebrating her 32nd birthday might be the oldest living cat in the world.","protected":false},"author":16,"featured_media":32912,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"featured_img_display":"Yes","footnotes":""},"categories":[3096],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-35016","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-good-news"],"publishpress_future_action":{"enabled":false,"date":"2026-04-22 19:13:26","action":"change-status","newStatus":"draft","terms":[],"taxonomy":"category","extraData":[]},"publishpress_future_workflow_manual_trigger":{"enabledWorkflows":[]},"react_link":"https:\/\/country929.com\/blogs\/good-news\/2023\/06\/worlds-oldest-cat-celebrates-32-birthday\/","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cfcofm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/35016","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cfcofm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cfcofm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cfcofm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/16"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cfcofm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=35016"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cfcofm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/35016\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":35019,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cfcofm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/35016\/revisions\/35019"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cfcofm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/32912"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cfcofm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=35016"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cfcofm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=35016"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cfcofm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=35016"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
