August 6, 2005(2005-08-06) (aged 38) Austin, Texas, U.S.
Known for
Longest lived cat certified by Guinness World Records
Owner
Jake Perry
Perry had another cat, Granpa Rex Allen, who he said was born in Paris, Texas, on February 1, 1964 and died aged 34 years and 59 days on April 1, 1998. The sixth oldest cat ever known, Granpa was posthumously awarded 1999 Cat of the Year by Cats & Kittens magazine.[4] He was featured in an earlier version of the Guinness World Records as the (then) oldest cat ever.[5]
Creme Puff's owner, Jake Perry, said her diet consisted of dry cat food supplemented with broccoli, eggs, turkey bacon, coffee with cream, and—every two days—"an eyedropper full of red wine". Perry claimed that this diet was key to her longevity, and that the wine "circulated the arteries".[6]
Perry also kept Creme Puff very active within the home, turning his garage into a movie theater that played nature documentaries for his cats. Wooden steps were built into the walls of Perry's home for the cats to climb on, and Perry had built a screened enclosure in his backyard for his pets, including Creme Puff, to enjoy the outdoors.[7]
