Cleopatra, who has retired from her avid hunting days, will celebrate the milestone birthday in Paisley alongside her owners Claire and Gordon Bruce on Sunday.
She might not be quite as old as the Egyptian pharaoh from whom she takes her name, but this cat could well be Renfrewshire’s oldest. Cleopatra – Cleo to her friends – is turning a remarkable 23 years old next month and there are big celebrations lined up for the senior moggy.
“Cleo is sassy and is the boss of the house!” Claire told the Paisley Daily Express. “She’s a half Siamese breed and is very vocal, said Claire, adding: “She likes to get up about 3am for some food and water and then comes back on the bed, walks up to your face and yams very loudly – so you wake up to pet her!
Claire said: “The sight and smell of a decapitated squirrel certainly puts you off your breakfast! Thankfully this phase did not last long. Cleo is very small, so no idea how she managed it, unless she had helpers.” When asked what she thought the secret to Cleo’s long life is, Claire said: “Lots of love, not being overfed, in her younger days out and about and most importantly getting into mischief.”
