T.S. Eliot Chaucer Marie deFrance
Of course there would be cats-- I hope you saw my evil children
Here's an answer to a pesky question: Just how old is that old cat?
1 year old cat equals a 24 year
old human
2 year old cat equals a 36 year old human
3 year old cat equals a 42 year old human
4 plus years: add 3 years for every year above 3
Using this calculation, the 20 year old cat is now a respectable but believable
93 years old. And a 9 month old cat is 18 years old, a teenager in every
sense. Remember that humans mature much more slowly than all other animals,
so the
chart may look counter intuitive, but it has to be this way to make the equivalent
ages realistic and meaningful. This chart also works for (cough) dogs, and
is completed below for those who don't have time to do the math. Of course
if someone has the time to look at a web site about how old their cat is
I can only say, they certainly have their priorities straight!
