Smokey, a gray and white tabby cat and owner Ruth Adams, in Northampton , England.

For cat lovers, there is nothing more soothing than the sound of their pet purring with contentment.
But when Smokey kicks off, it’s time to reach for the ear plugs.

A gray-and-white tabby by the name of Smokey has cat-apulted to fame with purring so loud it has been recorded at a potentially record-setting 73 decibels.

A British community college says it has a recorded a house cat whose lawnmower-like purr hit 73 decibels, 16 times louder than the average feline. Northampton College in central England said Wednesday, March 30, 2011, that it had dispatched a music team with specialist sound equipment to record 12-year-old Smokey. The recording has been submitted to the Guinness World Records.
