13-year-old Merlin was adopted from an animal rescue centre. His purr is as noisy as an air conditioner and nearly as loud as a shower or even a dishwasher! bit.ly/GWR-MerlinPurr

Guinness World Records MERLIN IS MY CATS NAME
Guinness World Records my cat is 1 year old
Guinness World Records my cat you need to put your ear up to it to hear it our!
That was a trill not a purr. It has aspect of a meow combined with purring. Sigh...if you owned a cat you would know the difference. There should be no high pitch aspect to it. Purrs are low frequency rumbles.
He was probably breaking the record again right after they stopped measuring.. that's how cats work.
bitspacemusic Cats work better as Sesame Chicken
MrPopots
A cat would say, "Can you tell me more?" and then walk away as you start explaining what the hell you're talking about.
bitspacemusic he must be Korean lmao substituting cats for chicken
+Andy T. I know I'm really late (10 months late) but that is wrong
bitspacemusic hello my baby, hello my honey, hello my ragtime gal...
He thinks he is a lion..
Richard Anthony L Lions don’t purr. The largest cat that purrs is the American mountain lion, aka cougar or puma.
The Lion Police are here 🚨
Felines that roar don't purr, and vice versa. It is because of the larynx, if it's soft they can purr, if not they can roar.
@@Scyllax I like how you say lions dont purr, then say but American mountain LIONS do. Sounds a bit counterintuitive
@@pathrender mountain lions is an ignorant nickname for cougar
imagine the look on the previous world record holder’s face when they find out that their record was beaten by 0.1 decibels
i picture the squidward shrinking face as their reaction
For real
I don't think cats can speak English though?
@@REEMONDpayne depends, my cat speaks American English. Some cats speak other languages. Cat lives actually matter.
I mean theres a margin of error. Probably really just about as loud. Some other factor messing with it. Wouldnt consider it beat by any means

LMAO Epic question with an Awesome Reply
Guinness World Records I watched your show on TV when It was 2014
No witnesses...
I don't think it makes you wonder that at all. I think you're 14 and trying to act like a comic.
Imagine you found a cat that’s louder and the moment you called up the World Record folks he just stayed quiet
LOL 😂 what are the chances
Like the loony toons frog. Look it up!
@Y M, YESSSSSSS “HELLO MY BABY HELLO MY HONEY”
Something like that happened in a comic with donald duck and his nephews
That's exactly the cat attitude...cattitude if you will
The room you're in affects how loud it will clock in on that device possibly by a whole factor of two.
The distance to the microphone affects it even more and it looked pretty random here.
You might consider not just measuring dB peaks, but actually measuring some kind of average over time as that would probably be what would be perceived as the loudest purring.
We didn't see all the measurements they made. At the beginning, we see them take at least one measurement from the ground where they were measuring distance from the ground at one meter. And its all for fun really. Now in the US, the cat would have made bank, hit the the talk shows and paid big bucks to show up at parties.
this implies that these world records are professional
I'm sure the sport of cat purring will implement these changes.
Did your cat lose the record or something??
🤓
The woman congratulating her is so adorable 😭

We've got a small male cat, 13 years old. He purrs a lot, but you have to hold him up to your ear to feel/hear it. Merlin would just about drive you out of the house!
Merlin seems like a one smart cat. It's something about his enchanting face. And his unusual size helps as well. What a beautiful creature 😍
Why is she congratulating the woman, it’s the cat who deserves congratulating
Kat needs treatz
Galatians 5:16 So I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh.
Well it's her cat to be fair. And the cat won't understand what they say.
Because she's the one that gets all the fame for having the loudest purring cat. The cat won't understand what a Guinness Book world record means.
She's the ome that raised the cat to be healthy enough to purr this loud at 13 years 😔 that cat would never be that loud as a stray
If this is the purr then imagine it hissing at you.

Lol yea
It would go EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

Senior cats are amazing.
I had the best cat I could've ever asked for. When he was younger, he was nowhere near as snuggly as he was when he got older.
I got him when I was 6, and he passed away recently, years later.
He was 12. He loved to snuggle, pat your fork to ask for food, purr and just meow for attention. I miss him a lot.
Senior cats are awesome. Of course not all of them will be, but they're so much more laxxed and open to snuggles. Hug your kitties tight for me.

“I’m going to have to analyze the data” you literally have the numbers right there on the damn device
recording decibels arent a one-way road
for world records like this, finding the exact time where the cat's purr is at its loudest is so much more incredibly difficult than it seems. the decibel recorder cannot listen to the purr for a minute and give you the loudest decibel displayed, that creates a luck factor where you cant be 100% certain. that is why the sound crew transferred all the recorded data onto a computer where they can manually search for the loudest point throughout the whole session.
Probably was trying to find the mean
It’s for dramatic effect :)
You dumb
They need to see if it's accurate person.

My issue with a record like this is that I feel like most people with really loud purring cats aren't gonna think to contact anyone about it, so really this a record for loudest cat who's owner thought "wow maybe I have the loudest cat I should contact the news".

Lucky, I have to press my ear against my cats side to hear him purr. If there was an award for quietest, he'd win.
(And no, he's not sad or depressed, he purrs all the time. It's just way too quiet!)
iambiggus I once lived with a cat where I couldnt her here purr but I could feel if I it with my hand. I like loud purrs.🐈
I can't even hear my cats purr. I can only feel it. My other cat purrs really loudly though.
My cat very rarely purrs audibly. Usually he just vibrates.
purring = happy vibrating
Mine's about eight years old, and not only is he quite the chatterbox, he is quite the loud purrer...Is that even a word?! Oh well....The point is, he has a purr that is *loud*. Not quite as loud as the purr of the kitty in this video, but you *know* when he's purring! The constant meowing and talking, along with the loud purring, are both traits that my kitty has had since kitten hood!
Just imagine waking up in the morning at 6 am after being disturbed by a jack hammer. So you looked out the window just to see a cat sitting in the middle of the road creating a dent in it
