My husband and I have had some of the same striped & spotted Raphael cats since 2008 or so. They're not quite the longest-kept, though. The fantail goldfish from my display tank at the Aquarium Center, Wanda, is still alive. He (yes, turns out Wanda is a boy), has lived in a pond at my childhood home since that tank was converted to a brackish display in 2002-2003ish. Wanda still lives there, now with a new family, since my parents moved in November.
