World's Oldest Cat... or World's Most Im-paw-ssible Hoax?
Could this be the oldest cat on the planet? Photo: Jeff Morris
Jim Cowell of northwest England's Lancashire County claims that in 1973, two young girls found a black-and-white feline, now known as Tizzie, along a railroad track and gave it to the Cowell family. Jim Cowell claims that Tizzie's veterinary records, which would verify the cat's age, were lost when the vet relocated in 1990 -- coincidentally (or not so coincidentally) the same year Jim says he assumed ownership of Tizzie from his mother.
Without those records, Cowell's best chances of verifiying that Tizzie is indeed 36 years old are:
- Tracking down the two girls who originally found the cat
- Sharing with the press family photos that date back to 1975 showing Tizzie in the possession of Jim and his mother.
