As of the 2014 edition of the record book, set to be released September 12, Colonel Meow holds the Guinness World Records Title of Longest Fur On A Cat, with 9 inch or 22.87 cm long fur.
The two year old Himalayan-Persian mix rescue cat who gained instant viral fame after a photo turned up at Reddit lives with his staff, Anne Marie Avey and Eric Rosario, in Los Angeles, California.
Anne Marie Avey talks about Colonel Meow, his career and his world-class fur in the video below.
