Flossie, who is the same age as her new owner, has had a number of different keepers in her long life and now resides on the edge of southeast London.
"She never turns her nose up at the chance of a good meal, except when she's snuggled on her favourite yellow blanket."
After being taken in by two workers near a Merseyside hospital back in 1995, Flossie was with her first owner for 10 years until they died.Taken in by the owner's sister, Flossie stayed there for another 14 years until that owner also died. Flossie was with the woman's son for three years until his situation forced him to take her to Cats Protection Tunbridge Wells, Crowborough and district branch.Naomi Rosling, co-ordinator at the branch, said:"We were flabbergasted when vet records showed Flossie to be nearly 27 years old.
"She's the oldest cat I've ever met, at least 120 in human years. If I'm in such good shape when I'm her age, with someone who does what's best for me when I need it most, I shall be a very happy lady."However, she still has a way to go to beat the record for the oldest cat ever - Creme Puff - who lived to an impressive 38 years and three days with her owner Jake Perry in Austin, Texas.
