Determining how big a cat will grow is quite difficult, as it depends on many factors.

We tell you how cats grow and up to what age.

How long does it take for cats to grow?

A cat's growth is influenced by its breed, heredity, quality of nutrition and previous illnesses.

On average, cats grow until 14-15 months, but some finish growing a little earlier.

Basically, after a year, active growth in length stops, and then the cat can only gain weight.

A lot depends on the breed. Cats of miniature breeds (Singapore, Munchkin) reach their maximum size at about 9 months.

Large breed cats, such as Maine Coons, continue to grow in size until they are 3 years old.
