A few days ago, we told you about dogs that have broken world records. Whether it was something related to their physical appearance, or their dexterity in carrying out the most curious tasks. But if anyone thought we wouldn't talk about Guinness World Records anymore, they were wrong. Because today it's the cats' turn! Ready to discover them?
Merlin, the tenor
Who would have thought that this rescued kitten's meows would turn him into a celebrity. Merlin holds the award for having the most powerful meow in the world. His meow reaches 67.8 decibels and is quite a marvel. His owner, Tracy Westwood, knew perfectly well that her cat was exceptional. And no wonder. What a "loudmouth"!
Colonel Meow and his glorious fur
Colonel Meow is the envy of cats. He has glorious fur and whiskers worthy of a shampoo commercial. And a Guinness award. That's why Colonel is the furriest feline of them all and is the cat with the longest fur in the world. His fur measures 22.87 centimeters. Grooming him must be quite an odyssey! And petting him, an addiction. That's what the more than 300,000 followers who admire him on his Instagram must think.
Didga, quite a phenomenon
There is no other cat like Didga in the world. Didga comes from a cat shelter and is an example of overcoming challenges. Not only is she a skateboarder, but she has earned her place in the Guinness Book of Records for being able to perform a total of twenty tricks in one minute. She can sit, do 360-degree turns, high-five, roll over... and much more. Don't miss her art in this video!
Corduroy, the ancient one
The oldest cat in the world is 26 years old and is named Corduroy. He was born on August 1, 1989, on the coast of Oregon and has lived with his owner, Ashley Reed Okura (who was only seven years old at the time), ever since. Corduroy's secret to eternal youth, according to his owner, lies in "letting him be a cat." That is, letting him hunt, run, play... and giving him lots and lots of love. Long live Corduroy!

The enormous Stewie
The largest cat in the world is five years old, named Mymains Stewart Gilligan (Stewie to his friends) and measures no less than 123 centimeters long. His owners, Robin Hendrickson and Erik Brandsness are extremely proud of their little big Maine Coon. And no wonder!
Mr. Peebles, a miniature
In contrast to the previous cat, we have the smallest kitten on the planet. His name is Mr. Peebles, he is three years old and measures only 19 centimeters. Mr. Peebles owes his miniature size to a small genetic defect. But don't tell us he's not simply adorable!
We hope you enjoyed these prodigious cats! Now we would like you to tell us why your cats would deserve a Guinness award. Unleash your ARISTO-PARENT pride and leave us a comment on our social media!
