World's Longest Domestic Cat - Stewie

A cat named as Stewie, is more incredible than other cats in the world. Stewie is a just five year old cat from Nevada, United States and it is the current world record holder for the world’s longest domestic cat. The average cat spans 18 inches normally but Stewie is length more than 30.5 inches from average.

Five year old Maine Coon Stewie has record 48.5 inches from the tip of his nose to the tip of his tail bone. That is a little more than 4 feet long which was amazing.

The previous record holder was another Maine Coon that measured 48 inches who was half an inch shorter. It was owned by Frieda Ireland of Chicago.

The owners of Stewie, Robin Hendrickson and Erik Brandsness decided to present five year old Stewie to the record after hearing and amazing countless people’s remark on his length.

Stewie is one of the Maine Coon variety and Maine Coons are known as 'the gentle giants' of the cat world.

Conjoined Twins with Amazing Coordination

Abigail Loraine Hensel and Brittany Lee Hensel were born on 7th March of 1990, at Carver County, Minnesota, United States. They were not same as other new boned children because they have only one body with two souls. Meaning that they are conjoined twins of whom each has a separate head, but whose bodies are joined. Their parents decided not to have the twins separated at birth regardless of the risks.

Brittany is the left twin, and Abigail is the right twin.
 

Abigail and Brittany have individual organs in the upper part of their body, while most of the organs located at or below the level of the navel are common, the exception being the spinal cord.

They have, 

• 2 heads
• 2 arms — originally 3, but the short abnormal central arm was removed
• 2 spinal cords and backbones which merge at the pelvis – surgery corrected scoliosis 3½ lungs — surgery expanded their chest cavity
• 2 breasts
• 2 hearts in a shared circulatory system — medicine taken by either affects both
• 1 liver
• 2 stomachs
• 3 kidneys
• 2 gallbladders
• 1 bladder 1 ribcage
• 1 large intestine
• 1 female reproductive system.

Each twin controls her half of their body, in use one of the arms and one of the legs. They required bodily coordination from both for some activities such as clapping, crawling, and walking. Each twin is able to eat and write separately and at the same time.

Other activities such as brushing hair, running, swimming and driving a car require that each twin carry out a series of quite separate actions that coordinate with the other. Displaying an amazing co-ordination which has astonished the world, they play the piano with Abigail taking the right hand parts and Brittany the left.

By seeing these things we feel sorry for them. But see how they are living happily with each other. The above photographs give evidence for their happy.

Abigail Loraine Hensel and Brittany Lee Hensel teach a good lesson to us from their living style.

“Be happy what you have without thinking what you don’t have”

Mother with the Longest Interval between Kids

On average your younger sister or brother may be younger around 5 or 10 years than you. If so it’s a normal thing. But have you ever heard that there is sister, whose brother is 41 years younger than her. How incredible is it?

Elizabeth Ann Buttle is known as the mother with the longest interval between kids. Currently she holds the world record for the longest interval between the births of two children.

She had two kids named Belinda and Joseph, which is nothing special in itself. But the incredible part is the interval between the birth of Belinda and Joseph. It is the world’s longest interval between births ever.

Elizabeth Ann Buttle’s first child, Belinda Buttle was born on May 19, 1956 when Elizabeth Ann Buttle was 19. Then her second child, Joseph Buttle was born on November 20, 1997 when Elizabeth Ann Buttle was 60. An interval between them is 41 years and 185 days. This long period between their births has made Belinda Buttle old enough to be a Joseph Buttle’s grandmother.
