Corduroy, The Oldest Living Domestic Cat In The
World’s
“The name of Corduroy has been added to the
Guinness Book of World records as the
oldest living cat on earth at 26 years…
History
Corduroy was born on August 1st, 1989 as a male
domestic cat in Oregon, United States.
Corduroy has lived with Ashley Reed Okura since
she picked him up from a litter, when
Ashley was 6 years old. Corduroy has his name written
in the Guinness Book of World
Records after the passing off of the Tiffany
Two, a cat that has lived for 27 years, 2
months & 20 days…
Corduroy is a Maine Coon cat breed, which has an
average lifespan of 12 to 15 years, but
this strong feline has doubled that. He is 120
years in people’s years.
Personality of Corduroy
Corduroy
is a cool & mellow cat that loves to enjoy life to the fullest. According
to Ashley the secret to the longevity of this oldest domestic cat is hunting
& lots of love…
One of
the factors that helped in improving this cat’s longevity is that his owners
did not declaw this cat & allowed him to go outside to roam.
Cat
toys were of no interest to him. Any item that cannot be eaten is of no
interest to this oldest living cat…
According
to Ashley he is a wonderful companion & has been around with the family
through every aspect of their lives. He is patient & loves the company of
children & other pets.
He
loves cuddles & catnaps under the sun. He still catches critters, but is
not as good as he was in his younger days.
…Longevity
runs in the family because even his brother Batman lived for 19 years.
Cordyroy,
the oldest domestic cat glides up the stairs & jumps on to the bed &
sleeps with his human friends before he wakes them up at around 5am in the
morning…
Ashley
Reed Okura feels that it’s been an honor to have Corduroy in their life &
they cannot imagine their lives without this loving & adorable cat.
Their
only wish is to give this wonderful companion cat a healthy & happy life
forever. Despite being on low- protein diet to protect his kidneys this oldest
domestic cat is in an amazingly very good health…”
