3 of the World’s Biggest Pets

 A 43-Inch-Tall Great Dane- Giant George

George has made appearances on The Oprah Winfrey Show & Live with Regis & Kelly. However, that’s not all; Giant George has developed quite a fan base, so his owner keeps fans up to date with the dog’s activities via his website and YouTube channel.

Giant George, a 43-inch-tall Great Dane from Tucson, Arizona, held two world records: the tallest living dog and the tallest dog ever (until February 15, 2010).

As incredible as it seems, this pet also has a book, “Giant George: Life with the World’s Biggest Dog,” and a Twitter account, of course.

Unfortunately, George passed away on October 17, 2013, one month away from his eighth birthday.

  A 30-Pound Cat (UK) - Ulric

Ulric the Norwegian Forest cat is twice as big as he should be. Weighing in at a whopping 30 pounds, this fat cat was the heaviest finalist that the PDSA’s fitness competition has ever had on their show.

Despite his diet, Ulric hit 17 pounds by the time he was 15 months old. The problem is that Ulric loves to eat. If he isn’t satisfied with his meal, he’ll just amble over to his sister Ulla’s bowl. So his owner, Jan Mitchell of Dorchester, UK, enrolled him in the pet fitness competition.

Gary: A 112-Pound Rodent (Texas)

At 112 pounds, Gary the capybara is the world’s largest pet rodent. Normally found in South America, this cute rodent has been adopted by a couple living in Texas. Their owners got Gary from a breeder in Arkansas.

Gary has become part of the family and enjoys swimming with his owners in the swimming pool. Due to the fact that capybaras spend a lot of time in the water, the couple had to build an above-ground pool.

The capybara also sleeps in his own bed and lives happily among the family’s menagerie of animals, including a horse, rabbits, tortoises, dogs, and a cat.
