Interestingly, this is in the news today, published just two hours after your comment:
‘Flossie, 26, of Orpington, was confirmed as the oldest cat by Guinness World Records, which said she had a human equivalent age of 120 years old.’

This might be the oldest cat still living or something similar.
Guinness shows Creme Puff as the oldest. https://www.guinnessworldrecords.com/world-records/oldest-cat-ever
