When do cats start to get old?

PoC avatarPosted on December 15, 2020 by Michael BroadDecember 15, 2020

It is said that domestic cats start to get old at the age of seven but it is unfair to generalise as it depends on the individual cat. It can be difficult to really accurately convert cat years to human … Continue reading →

What cats live the longest?

Pictures of 32-year-old cat: as a kitten and now

The idea that a dog or cat year is equivalent to seven human ones is flawed

PoC avatarPosted on November 23, 2019 by Michael BroadNovember 23, 2019

You might know this. The classic way of working out the human equivalent age of cats and dogs used to be to multiply their age by seven. That method is too crude by modern standards. It is far better to … Continue reading →

Why isn’t my cat a lap cat?

PoC avatarPosted on February 28, 2019 by Michael BroadMarch 4, 2019

Why isn’t my cat a lap cat? Three topics come to mind in response to the question in the title. They are, socialisation, age and wild cat hybrids. Tell me if you have more! Socialisation Perhaps the biggest influence on … Continue reading →

Domestic cat life stages

PoC avatarPosted on July 28, 2018 by Michael BroadMarch 16, 2020

We are told that veterinarians divide a domestic cat’s lifespan into six life stages. They do this to be able to provide better health care. I’ll guess and presume that at certain life stages it is sensible for a vet … Continue reading →

28-year-old cat looks much younger than her age. What’s the secret?

Lady is 28-years-of-age, getting on for a record. This is around 10 years older than a good average age for a domestic cat and yet she looks a lot younger than her age. What’s the secret? I am sure Lady … Continue reading →

These Cats Are 13 Years Apart In Age And You Can Tell

PoC avatarPosted on June 17, 2015 by Michael BroadJune 17, 2015
