Perry claimed that this diet was key to her longevity, and that the wine “circulated the arteries.”
Funny, I just watched a YouTube video about this guy and his cats. Seems like while he was a sweet guy he was probably lying about his cats age. Like, he claimed to have the pedigree papers but never actually showed them to anyone? And then after the cat died he said “oh my bad I told you guys the wrong age, he was actually [record setting age] the whole time”
Same with humans. Even for some with real papers, they just wrote down some birth year when issuing them.
In some regions issuing false birth papers is very common due to legal reasons (tax and stuff).
This isn’t throwing shade since I’m not neurotypical but I could tell by the time she finished saying “hello friends” that neither was she.

I had a beta fish that lived for 10 years when I was a kid, but I kind of suspect my mother may have replaced it without telling me when it died.
Yeahhh I remember we had this dying tomato plant in the garden but for some reason I was attached to it, and I told my mom she didn’t need to replace it and it would get better on its own. And then I went back to the garden later and it looked really healthy, good as new!
She was trying to help. That’s a kind and admirable intention.
Maybe it was mostly the eggs. More than one person that lived to be the oldest shared that they ate eggs regularly: Emma Morano, Violet Brown, and Susannah Mushatt Jones. Emma Morano said she ate three eggs every day. https://www.sbs.com.au/food/article/the-worlds-oldest-woman-reveals-the-food-she-swears-by/elxvgsctf
Coffee? My cat bounces off the wall too much as it is
Coffee is a diuretic, it is beneficial to the kidneys and hard on the stomach.
A large percentage of cats die from kidney issues, not many die from stomach issues. So coffee is good for cats makes sense imo.
Cats don’t like to drink Standing Water. That’s why they all have kidney issues.
Buy a water fountain and use that as a drinking bowl. You will be refilling that shit multiple times/week despite it being a significantly larger quantity of water.
That’s like twice the lifespan of an average cat. That’s like a human living to 140 or 150. Not sure I believe it. I need to see a valid birth certificate, not that I care. I guess I kind of care.
Needs to be long form birth certificate
I don’t believe it
Hol’ up. Coffee and red wine OK to give cats?
New New Year’s resolutions unlocked.
I have a cat obsessed with stealing my coffee. He succeeds a few times a week and he’s still alive, so probably ok?
My cats become extremely interested in any area I spill coffee in and will actively try to get a cup of coffee.
Just goes to show how much of longevity is genetic
No amount of alcohol is healthy and grapes are highly toxic to cats and dogs
I felt the same way after reading about Jeanne Calment’s smoking habit.
Yeah, the wine is completely ridiculous.
Everyone knows the proper formula for cat longevity is tren, metformin, and a lil bit of creatine sprinkled on wet food. Keep ‘em swole.
I’ve seen that ‘bully’ mix for dogs and have wondered if there is something similar I could use to get my barn cats jacked. We’ve got some pretty arrogant roosters around here.
I was under the impression it was “pspspspsps”
The guy had two cats holding world records. it was probably lifestyle and not genetic
I have to call bullshit on this whole thing, no way one guy can hold two records for the world’s oldest and second oldest cats, even if there was a specific lifestyle.
Reads to me like the Mediterranean diet myth, where all these unusually long-lived pensioners in southern Europe turned out to just be relatives covering up the person’s death to continue collecting money.
Just seems like an attention grab to me. People will try to be famous for anything.
Both awards were posthumorous. Why did they not simply count the cat’s rings?
I think you’ve missed the fact that this cat was clearly a man cursed by a witch.
No amount of alcohol is healthy
Until very recently the consensus wasn’t reached.
Cream Puff’s ownership of the One Ring is irrelevant.
sample size = 1
If it were just one 30+ year old cat, it’d be more believable. But the wiki article says that he owned two, and the other one lived into its mid-30s.
Pretty sure that I have a better odds of quantum tunneling my entire self to the Andromeda galaxy in the next ten minutes than a single person has to own two 30+ year old housecats that were born within a few years of each other.
Might have been from the same litter and had bangin’ DNA? If they were completely unrelated, yeah, not buying it.
it’s been 4min now, are you dead yet?
No response, it must have worked.
Wonder if he’s full of shit, or he has lost his cats a number of times and brought home what is most definitely not his cat. It’s more common than you’d think.
Slightly skeptical but the cited article says that he had many cats live over 30 years: https://www.atlasobscura.com/articles/how-to-raise-a-165-year-old-cat
