Short reporter meets tall cat
I had to wear high heels to my assignment at The Savannah Cat Shoppe. At 5 foot, I was rather intimidated about meeting the world's tallest cat.Scarlett's Magic is a Savannah cat owned by Rancho Cucamonga residents Lee and Kimberly (pictured) Draper. The Guinness Book of World Records recently named her the tallest domestic cat in the whole wide world, putting her in the same company as a dog who broke the record for having the most tennis balls in his mouth and the oldest married couple.
At 17.1 inches tall from shoulder to toe, Scarlett's Magic is just 55 inches shorter than me. I was glad I wore heels.
You might have seen Scarlett's Magic out and about. The Drapers walk her regularly with a leash and take her to restaurants. If you want to get a better look at her, she's usually at The Savannah Cat Shoppe at the Dos Lagos mall in Corona.
Look in Sunday's article for more about Scarlett's Magic.

Hmm… if you are 5 feet tall, adding a pair of two-inch heels, that gives you 62 inches. Subtracting 17.1 inches of the feline, wouldn’t it be a difference of only 45 inches, not 55?
Well, Wendy, talent is not necessarily measured in inches. Look up Kristin Chenoweth; she's 4′11″.
restaurants? are you joking? ew, just, ew.
