The text states the oldest cat is 39 years old, equivalent to 172 human years.
The claim about the oldest cat being 39 years old is incorrect according to available records. Creme Puff holds the record at 38 years and Flossie is confirmed to be 26 years as of 2022. The claim about a 39-year-old cat living 172 human years is not supported by standard feline-to-human age conversion, which estimates a 39-year-old cat to have lived about 172 human years under exaggerated conversions.
