World's Oldest Living Cat, Tiffany Two, Turns 27 Today!

The world's oldest living cat, Tiffany Two, turned 27 today!

Tiffany Two, a tortoiseshell cat, was born on March 13, 1988 in San Diego, California. At just 6 weeks old, she was purchased by her human, Sharon Voorhees, from a local pet shop for $10, reported Guinness World Records.

Despite her age (she would be 125 years old in human years!), Tiffany Two still has her sight and hearing.

"She's not afraid of anything or anyone," Voorhees told Guinness World Records. "She walks right past the dogs, she's very feisty!"

Voorhees suggested to "Good Morning America" that Tiffany Two may have reached her age because of her small size.

"Tiffy's just so devoted to me, she doesn't want to leave me," she said. "But I think it could also have to do with her size. She's only six pounds, and I know smaller dogs live longer than older dogs."

Tiffany Two was named the world's oldest cat in 1990 when Voorhees saw a story of the alleged oldest cat in the world. After proving Tiffany Two's age, she clenched the title as the world's oldest living cat.

Although living to 27 in cat years is a mighty feat, she still has a long way to go to become the oldest cat ever.

Creme Puff, a cat from Austin, Texas, lived an amazing 38 years and three days, according to the Guinness World Records.
