The giant cat from Jaú that could enter the Guinness Book as the largest in the world
The giant cat from Jaú, Xartrux, is about to enter the Guinness Book as the world's largest feline. At 1 meter and 30 centimeters long and weighing more than 10 kilos, the 6-year-old maine coon has become a national celebrity following an article published by JCNET and Rede Sampi.
Xartrux and his tutors, Marcia Oliveira and Jean Martins, traveled to São Paulo, where they took part in television programs such as Encontro com Patrícia Poeta, on Globo, and were featured in various media outlets, such as Record TV, G1, Band and others.
Marcia, who has been passionate about cats since childhood and found Xartrux an emotional support during her cancer treatment, is following the process of validating the feline's entry in the Guinness Book. In July, the couple hopes that Xartrux will be officially recognized as the world's largest cat, surpassing the previous record of 1.23m.
The story of overcoming and love between Marcia, Jean and Xartrux has thrilled Brazil and promises to bring many more moments of fame and recognition to this giant feline from Jaú.
