In Britain, a cat died, who was 31 years old and who, quite possibly, was the oldest cat in the world.

During his unusually long life, Rabble lived with his mistress, Michel Heritage, in the English city of Exeter, the capital of Devonshire.

It was presented to the mistress in May 1988 on her 20th anniversary. According to 52-year-old Michelle, he was able to live such a long and happy life, because for lack of children she devoted all her love and care to him.

"He would have turned 32 in May, which is a huge achievement. He was a wonderful companion with whom I was lucky to live so long," she said in an interview.

Together with Rabble, Michel also had a cat, Meg, who also had extraordinary longevity: she died at 25.

According to the cat’s hostess, she was never interested in an official entry in the Guinness Book of Records, so she did not want to bother her pet with all kinds of unnecessary ceremonies.

According to the Veterinary Clinic City Vets in Exeter, Rabble, who was an ordinary red cat mixed with a longhair Maine Coon, was in good health, but in recent years he began to play pranks and he had to take medicine.
