Creme Puff (August 3, 1967 – August 6, 2005) was a mixed tabby domestic cat, owned by Jake Perry of Austin, Texas. She was the oldest cat ever recorded, according to the 2010 edition of Guinness World Records, when she died aged 38 years and 3 days.
Perry had another cat, Granpa Rexs Allen, who was the sixth oldest cat ever recorded. Perry said Granpa was born in Paris, France, on February 1, 1964, and died aged 34 years and 59 days on April 1, 1998. Granpa was posthumously awarded 1999 Cat of the Year by Cats & Kittens magazine. He was featured in an earlier version of the Guinness World Records as the (then) oldest cat ever.
Lifestyle
Creme Puff's owner, Jake Perry, said her diet consisted of dry cat food and claimed he supplemented it with broccoli, eggs, turkey bacon, coffee with cream, and—every two days—"an eyedropper full of red wine". Perry claimed that this diet was key to her longevity, and that the wine "circulated the arteries". Both alcohol and coffee are highly toxic to cats, making this claim dubious.
Perry turned his garage into a movie theater that played nature documentaries. He installed steps onto his walls for the cats to climb and built a screened enclosure in his backyard to allow the pets to enjoy the outdoors.
