A one year old cat is like a 12 year old child. The average indoor cat lives around 16-19 years and vets consider them middle aged around ten or so. Cats aren't even done growing fully at age one! However, they can have kittens, so it's best to get your cat spayed or neutered around age seven months.

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.
