A silver Maine coon cat from Minnesota was awarded a Guinness World Record after his tail was measured at 18.5 inches long.
Amanda Cameron said her family’s 2-year-old cat, Mr. Pugsley Addams, has always had a long tail, and the subject even came up during his first visit to the vet.
Cameron said the veterinarian mentioned it again 6 months later, inspiring her kids to research the Guinness World Records for the longest tail on a domestic cat living.
“And what do you know — to our shock, Pugsley beat it,” Cameron said.
She said Pugsley is a remarkably easy-going and friendly feline.
“Everybody always wants to meet him, and falls in love with his calm demeanor. He is pretty level-headed, even in new situations that might be scary for some cats,” she said. “He is super soft, and is always purring. He’s just a great little guy to be around. When we go out and about, they call him a ‘local celebrity!'”
