Meet Rubble, a British cat who is now being called the ‘oldest cat in the world’ after celebrating his 30th birthday

His owner, Michele Foster, got him as a kitten on her 20th birthday May 1988

“He was part of a litter of cats that my sister’s friend had and I had just left home”

“I was lonely living on my own so got him in as a kitten”

The pair have been inseparable ever since

Rubble has now matched the age of the last world record holder

Rubble had a party at his local vets where he was treated to some of his favorite cat food and a free check-up

“He is on medication for his blood pressure but apart from that, he is in remarkably good health”

He is quite likely to be the oldest cat in the world and is still going strong

Happy 30th birthday Rubble!
