Fun fact: the median age of the world population is 31 years old — this doesn’t seem like a lot, especially when we compare it to the worlds’ oldest living cat that reached the age of no less than 38 years old. Cats break world records all the time and we came across Kefir, who’s recently been dubbed the world’s biggest cat and we wanted to let you in on the meows — sorry, news.
We had the opportunity to ask the lucky owner and Kefir’s BFF, Yuliya, some questions and we’re here to spill the dry food, pun intended — get ready to meet this white, regal-looking Maine Coon cat.

The 27 lb (12.2 kg) Maine Coon cat, Kefir — has been making waves online. Named by Yuliya’s 2 daughters, after the fermented milk drink, the feline makes people believe it’s a dog, even if in theory, it’s still a kitten. If a typical domestic cat is fully grown by the age of 1 or 2, Maine Coons don’t stop growing until they reach the age of 3 or 4.

Kefir is Yuliya’s first cat and when they welcomed him into their family, they never expected him to get so big. Kefir is really smart and intelligent, by nature. In Yuliya’s household, he’s thought of as a person.
