  2. They look like subadult cats, just below adulthood. Domestic cats are generally considered adults around 12 months old. However, their physical and behavioral development varies slightly depending on breed and individual characteristics.

    Sexual Maturity: Cats typically reach sexual maturity between 5 to 9 months, which is often mistaken as adulthood. They can reproduce at this stage, but they are not fully developed.
    – Physical Maturity: Most cats achieve full physical maturity by 12 to 18 months, though some larger breeds, like Maine Coons, may continue growing until they are around 2 to 4 years old.
    – Behavioral Maturity: Behavioral changes indicating adulthood, such as reduced playfulness or more stable social behavior, generally occur after the 1-year mark but can continue to evolve as they age.

    So, while 1 year is the general benchmark, full maturity can take a bit longer.
