Remember animal panorama fails? These pictures are the opposite. They're as real as it gets.

The average cat is about 46 cm (18 in) in head-to-body length with a roughly 30 cm (12 in) long tail. And that's what we're used to seeing. However, there are breeds that are so far off these numbers, they look like mini lions. Or slinkies. Take the Maine Coon, for example. The title for the longest cat in the world belongs to one of these majestic guys. His name's Stewie, and The Guinness World Records confirmed that he measured 123 cm (48.5 in) from the tip of his nose to the tip of his tail.

Bored Panda has compiled pics of some of the longest cats out there, and they seem to stretch 'til infinity. Scroll down to take a look for yourself and upvote your faves!

    I can tell the cat wasn’t ordered from amazon. The box is the perfect size and there isn’t ridiculous amounts of packaging.

    My 10 year old (and quite heavy) cat sleeps like that, though instead of another cat he uses my leg. It's both cute and very uncomfortable ( for me))) I have no idea how he manages to breathe like this.

    Never hold your cat like that. HIs heart is right there and you put strain on it by making him dangle like that.

    It’s obvious it is doing yoga. The pose is the upward facing dog but best to change the dog part to cat.

    I have never owned a cat or held one like that so I don’t know, but does this hurt the cats being held that way. I know for me it bloody hurts being held up by the arm pits.

    This is just one reason why cats should remain indoors or have an enclosed cat run. So many cats get hit and killed by cars.
