Is it just me, or does it look just like CFZ moggy Helios7?

OLL LEWIS: Long Cat Is Looooooong

For many years it has been claimed on the internet that the world's longest cat is a Japanese cat named Shiroi. This particular cat has often been depicted in photoshopped images from Futaba Channel and 4Chan, where it is known as 'long cat', displaying somewhat exaggerated visual length comparisons.



However, it would seem that Long Cat's claim to being the worlds longest domestic cat has been well and truly quashed. A cat named Stewie from the United states of America has recently been confirmed by the Guinness Book of Records as the world's longest domestic cat. Stewie, a Maine coon, measures 1.16 metres from his nose to the tip of his tail, or 48 and a half inches if you still deal in imperial measurements. To put that into a bit of perspective for non-cat-owners my constant companion during animal feeding time at the CFZ, Helios 7, measures only 65 cm, which is 25 and a half inches. I'd guess Number 7 is only a little shorter than average for a domestic cat so Stewie is about twice as big as most cats that you would see walking around. That is quite an amazing animal.
