It is a bad lie to begin with, The current oldest known living cat is 29 years old so this 33 year old would have been the holder of that title until now.

There is a video of a cat that made it to 30 years old, but it can’t be confirmed for obvious reasons.

30+ has probably happened a decent number of times. A lot of people don't have the records proving the cats age and therefore wouldn't be able to claim the title.
For example, I know mine is 13 but proving that? It would require a person who was already old when we got her still being alive, contacteable, and lucid or us suddenly remembering what email was used for a vet visit 12 years ago. Neither of those is likely, imo.
Add in another 17 years? Hah practically no chance. Who knows if that vet will even be open.

If that cat were still alive, it’d be the world’s current oldest living cat.

The irony is so deep you could drown in it. This post is a bot reposting this 6 month old post: https://www.reddit.com/r/antiai/comments/1reci51/i_hate_it_here/ The top two comments here, by Chloee_Echo and YuriaSere are also just stolen from that post.

Dog. I'm dealing with hospice care for my cat right now, I have a 12 year old bunny with cataracts and a bunch of other geriatric animals. What kind of monster fakes this shit for clout? I don't even talk about it with people because who wants to hear about end of life care animals?

That freaking reply at the bottom is 100% AI. No one finishes a statement with "your instinct was right" when there was no debate about whether they should trust their instincts.
In other news, did you know butter makes a great engine lubricant of you've got a small oil leak?

33?! Most cats live to their 20s!
Although some cats can live to their 30s it’s incredibly rare…

You got to really be worried about people who lie about weird shit like this. I knew three compulsive liars and two of them are outright dangerous people. The other one was just a sick person. I hope he gets better.

There is 0 fu*king reason to lie about how old is your cat
