It may be Friday the 13th today, but the San Diego cat celebrating her birthday today is a lucky one.

The world's oldest cat, Tiffany Two, turns 27 today, or 125 in human years, according to Guinness World Records.

Tiffany's owner, Sharron Voorhees, told ABC News she thinks her cat's longevity can be pinned to her devotion and her small size.

"Tiffy's just so devoted to me, she doesn't want to leave me." Voorhees, 73, said. "But I think it could also have to do with her size. She's only six pounds, and I know smaller dogs live longer than older dogs."

The longest I've had a cat was 21-1/2 years and thought that was incredible. One of my current cats is going on 19 and I think that is terrific.

Tiffany's one cat who's taken the idiom ""Hang In There"" to heart!

27 is unbelievable! We lost our cat, Daisy, two weeks ago, and she was 18. And, she was really starting to look elderly the past few months.

27 year old cat! Wow! My cat will be 16 this summer and I can already tell he's getting old.

My cat Ted lived to be 21 and 8 months. We lost him just after this past Christmas. He was an amazing boy. This Tiffany looks really good for her age!

I had a cat that lived to be 15 and I thought that was pretty good. Being 27 is amazing !

She is very beautiful. That is amazing, that she is 27.

Mine is singing Liesel's song to us, from the Sound of Music, "I am sixteen, going on seventeen!" LOL! She will be seventeen later this year.

Kitties have lived into their 30's, believe it or not.

Happy (slightly-belated) B-day, petite Tiffany! And hugs to your mama. 8)
