The record is currently held by 27-year-old Flossie from London, but as Rosie's owners are waiting to hear from the Guinness World Records she might soon be knocked off the top spot ...
Rosie was born on 1 June 1991. Rosie's paw-rent rescued the "fluffball" when she was a kitten and has only visited the vet twice in her life. Lisa Blissett said Rosie "is lovely" and mostly enjoys "eating and sleeping" these days.
Rosie is just six years off the age of the oldest cat to have ever lived - Crème Puff from Texas lived to the grand old age of 38 according to the Guinness World Records.
The record breaking feline was born on 3 August 1967 and lived until 6 August 2005, cared for by his owner Jake Perry in Austin, Texas, in the United States.

...that is quite an old kitty! Happy Birthday.
Maybe going to the vet (or human doctor) compromises your health and longevity?!

What an amazing kitty to have reached such an age. I hope she keeps right on eating and sleeping and enjoying her old age.

Muy interesante reportaje. No conocía nada sobre esos gatos. Besos.
Cute kitty. 32 years is already a long life, may Rosie be able to celebrate many more years to come.
Grettings and all the best
Oh wow I did not know that any cat has lived that long, the longest any of our cats lived was 19 years, I can imagine all it does is eat and sleep at that age.
Wow, that's really amazing.
Wow, that's a long lived cat!
Happy belated birthday Rosie...Thats a long life..Here's to many more!!
Oh my goodness, that's a good life for a kitty! Here's to her reaching 30 :)
Happy birthday, Rosie.
My goodness! Good for her and her people...
Many happy returns of the day, Rosie!
I think I heard this story on the radio the other day. If it's the same owner all of her pets (and her husband) lived to a ripe old age. I think the cat gets a tin of salmon twice a year, on her birthday and at Christmas. Take care and have a lovely week, Sue xx
Pretty amazing. Happy Birthday to Rosie!!
Wow. That is one old kitty.
Wow -- if Lizzie goes that long, she will outlive me!
Quite a grand lady.
How lovely! That sure is something. Here's to many more years for her.xxx
Wow, what a milestone! Rosie looks a lot like my Twiggy, who has sadly just been diagnosed with cancer last week, and it doesn't look as if she will live to see her 16th birthday in September.
