“Omar was the same size as all the other kittens in his litter when he was taken home by his owner Stephy Hirst in 2013.”
“But now the 120cm (3 ft 11 in), 14kg (31 lb) Maine Coon from Melbourne, Australia, could be the world’s longest domestic cat.”
“Omar has also displayed a talent for opening doors, kitchen cupboards, shower screens and wardrobes.”
“Omar typically rises at 5:00 am, eats a couple of scoops of dry cat food for breakfast, lounges around the house, plays in the backyard, naps on the trampoline and eats raw kangaroo meat for dinner.”

Ms Hirst started a social media account for Omar and one of her photos was shared on the Cats of Instagram account more than 270,000 times.

Maybe this is when you DON’T say, “Here, kitty, kitty.”

Sharon,
Good point! Not sure I would want Omar jumping on my lap. But then, he might make a good guard cat.

Mice, birds, small dogs and children beware. They might have renamed him “Bob” after he matured as his size resembles more of a wild than domestic species.

Beware indeed . .. here’s hoping he’s a peace loving puddy-cat.

Laura,
“That’s a CAT” . . . couldn’t have said it better myself. I wonder if Omar knows he’s a capital C A T.
