Every cat year is not the equivalent of 7 human years. If that were true, then a 15 year old cat would be 105 and a cat that lived to be 20 would be 140 years old!

Here is a rough reference chart of cat's ages and their relative human equivalent: 1=15, 2=24, 3=28, 4=32, 5=36, 6=40, 7=44, 8=48, 9=52, 10=56, 11=60, 12=64, 13=68, 14=72, 15=76, 16=80, 17=84, and 18=88.

Note some slower maturing breeds, like the Maine Coon, will actually be younger in the first 3-5 years until they reach their maturity.

How old is your 13 year old and 2 month old Persian cat in human years?

If the cat is 13 years and 2 months in 'regular', human, years, then in cat years, how old it really is in their world, it is about 72 years. If it is 13 years in 2 months in cat years, if you go backwards (or at least backwards from our point of view) the cat is only 6 months old. I say all this because usually people ask this type of question like, "How old is your 13 year old and 2 month old Persian cat in cat years?" because the vet told them they were that age and they want to find out how old they are in CAT years. Your question was a little confusing to me on which one you meant, so I put in both ways. :)

Is there a difference between dog and cat years?

Yes, there's a difference between cat years and dog years. What we call "dog years"(to calculate a dog's "human" age), is simple. For every human year a dog has lived, that's 7 "dog years". So a 2 year old dog is 14 dog years, while a 5 year old dog is 35 dog years. A cat's age is a little more tricky. Different sources vary slightly, but this is the most common way. The first year of a cat's life is 15 "cat years". Then you add 9 "cat years" for the second year, so a 2 "human year" old cat is 24 "cat years". For every "human year" after that, you add 4 "cat years". An 8 "human year" old cat would be 48 "cat years". "human year" = 365 days, one revolution around the Sun "cat year" = the comparative "year" for a cat based on milestones, such as walking, sexual maturity


If you cat is 1 in human years how old is it in cat years?

Your cat should be around 60 cat years old in human years. Aging occurs much faster during the first 2 years of a cat's life. By the age of 2, a cat will be around 24 years old in human terms. After the first 2 years, a cat will age approximately 4 cat years for every human year. If your cat is 11 years old now, it should be around 60 cat years old.

What is the ratio between the age of a cat and the age of a person e.g. is a 3-year-old cat the equivalent of a 21-year-old person?

A common rule of thumb is that one cat year is roughly equivalent to 4 human years for the first two years of a cat's life, then each additional year is roughly equivalent to 2-3 human years, depending on the cat's breed and overall health. So a 3-year-old cat would be roughly equivalent to a human age of around 28-32 years.


How old is a cat in 1 human year?

First allow 15 human years for the 1st year of your cat's life, then add 9 years for the 2nd. Add 4 years each year from the third year on out. For example: 1 cat year = 15 human years, 2 cat years= 24 human years, 3 cat years = 28 human years, and 4 cat years = 32 human years and so on.
