Probably every cat owner would be curious to know the age of their pet in terms of human life years.
Usually, for this purpose, it is customary to multiply the years the animal has lived by 7, but the result is very approximate.
For this purpose, felinologists (cat experts) have developed a proven formula, which we are eager to share with you.
The first year of a cat's life can be compared to 15 years of a human's life.
In turn, the second is equal to 9 years of human life, and each subsequent one is equal to 4 years.
If we take as an example an abstract cat that has reached the age of 5 years, then this means that if it were a human, its age would be 36 years.
Again, we won’t foam at the mouth and declare that this formula is 100% accurate, because much also depends on the individual predisposition of a particular cat and its breed.
For example, representatives of a breed such as the Maine Coon mature much more slowly.
