Same as with dog record holders, we will find many cat records as well. For example, do you know, what is the record in the number of cats living under one roof?
The oldest cat
Cats live up to an average of 9–15 years. But Creme Puff from the USA lived up to admirable 38 years!
The heaviest cat
The heaviest tomcat recorded was Himmy, again from the USA. He weighed some astonishing 21.3 kg. He lived for ten years.
The smallest cat
The smallest cat in the book of Guinness World Records is Mister Peebles, also from the USA. Mister Peebles weighs only 1.5 kg and due to a genetic defect, he is only 15 cm tall.
The most numerous cat litter
Burmese cat called Tarawood Antigon gave birth to a litter of 19 kittens, out of which 15 survived – one female cat and fourteen tomcats.
The most expensive cat
While 10 million was paid for the most expensive dog, the most expensive cat costs 3 million crowns. It is Zeus, an Asian Leopard cat.
The cat with the most fingers
Normal number of fingers for a cat is 18. However, the book of Guinness World Records lists a tomcat called Jake, who has 27 of them!
Most cats under one roof
Jack and Donna Wright Kingston from the USA have been listed in the book of records for living with 689 cats under one roof.
The longest cat
Tomcat Leo is a Maine Coon. Apart from measuring the record 121.9 cm from his nose to its tail, he’s also as big as an eight-year-old.
The richest cat
The richest cat is surely Blackie, who inherited about 450 million crowns from her owner.
And what about your cat, does it have a peculiar trait, that would get her into the book of records?
Although it might appear that the cat doesn’t give a tail about you and it is indifferent towards you, maybe you will still find some displays of affection in its behaviour. Do you know how cats show such affection towards a person?
Cats love grass. They nibble at it if it's to clean their belly from hairs or just for fun. In addition, if you get a cat its own flowerpot, you can hope that it will leave your other plants alone :).
Whether you remove a tick from a dog’s or cat’s fur the right way might affect whether the animal will become infected with Lyme disease or another malign disease transmitted by ticks. Have you got the right technique and tools?
Just like with people, also in dogs, Lyme disease is a very grave illness. There are an estimated 20% of ticks infected in the Czech Republic. And because despite the use of antiparasitic agents, your dog might get a tick from time to time, it’s good...
I’ve already written about cat mint, today, we’ll take a look at another, lesser known drugs. Since not all the cats respond to all of them and they don’t respond to everything the same way. Therefore, if you didn’t succeed with cat mint, maybe you’ll...
Every cat owner has certainly already heard of cat mint, catnip or catswort. Under all these names hides a herb that makes most of the cats “high”.

I’ve already written about the fact that you’re not supposed to leave your dog closed in a car on summer days or on how to prevent hyperthermia in cats and dogs. So you have mastered the prevention already. But it is also necessary to know how to...
Without a question, chinchillas are beautiful and cute furry animals with large ears, a long tail and distinctive eyes. Do you know where they actually come from, what their name means and that we almost succeeded in nearly exterminating them before...
You have probably noticed that cat tongues are quite unique. They are rough and somehow scratchy. It seemed weird to American biologists and therefore they decided to look deeper into it.
What should I say, the cats are simply different. Since the time immemorial, they have been surrounded by mysteries and secrets. Most of them behave as if they were the master of the world and as if they don’t need the human at all. A couple of...
It can be quite a task to choose the right pet food precisely for your cat. To even understand the contents... That’s why we’re going to take a look today what to focus on, what to look for in the contents and what you should rather avoid.
