Poppy Is Crowned World's Oldest Living Cat at Age 24

[joeybee12]

The world's oldest living cat is a 24-year-old feline with a hankering for KFC chicken and kebabs.

The cat, Poppy, is a mutt that lives in Bournemouth, England, with owner Jacqui West, her husband and two sons, as well as four other cats, a rabbit and a hamster.

Poppy, now blind and deaf, has lived through four United States presidents, and despite her frail health, she still rules the roost at home, her owners say. [ Images: See the World From a Cat's Eyes ]

Poppy is definitely the top cat and she is still quite feisty. If one of the other cats tries to eat her food she will bite them on the ear," West told the Guinness Book of World Records.

Poppy looks very frail and old, but apparently she's still got the will to carry on, so here's to her!

1. Guy here in Austin had two cats that lived to be 36+

My vet was the one that took care of them.
