[TexasTowelie]

Move over, Grumpy Cat. Step aside, Hello Kitty. Never mind Garfield.

Guinness World Records named Corduroy as the world's new oldest living cat on Thursday.

Corduroy celebrated his 26th birthday on August 1.

Corduroy has lived with Ashley Reed Okura of Sisters, Oregon, since he was a kitten and Okura was 7 years old.

"The secret has been allowing him to be a cat -- hunting and getting plenty of love!" Okura said, according to a Guinness statement. "Growing up on 160 acres in Oregon, I allowed Corduroy to roam the ranch freely, so he always gets lots of exercise."

1. The Kitty was very surprised at all the attention. "Look people...this is not rocket science..

...Most cats use up their 9 lives. I had the sense to save all mine so I've used 2 of them...now let me go back to sleep"
