This Handsome Champ Is The World's Oldest Cat


BY MICHELLE

Cats are notorious for having nine lives.[post_ads] No matter how much trouble they get themselves into, they just bounce back — sometimes quite literally. That's what makes cats so much better than dogs, right? Cats persist. 

In fact, I'm quite certain my gray cat Molson, who ran away against his better judgment, is still going strong out there somewhere. [post_ads_2]I can see him now, sitting back on someone's porch, begging for food, hunting around, and just loving life as a free cat. 

But this isn't a story about my beloved lost cat. It's a story about another cat: a cat whose life is so fantastic, he just couldn't give it up for the next one.

But since he's such a sucky-baby, he always ventures back inside!
