Whats the life expectancy of a cat?

Answer 1

15-17 years on average but the oldest cat ever was 43, which is 188 cat years!

Many cats have lived to be 20 and beyond. Like humans, you can never be sure. Make sure to keep your cat on a solid diet, well exercised, and provided with regular vet visits. My family has always had long lived cats, because, as we say, they know how good they have it and know better than to give it up. Treat your cat the same way and hopefully it'll beat the averages too.

Answer 2

Indoor and Outdoor cats generaly have different life expectancy, due to different factors such as exercise and disease etc

The average life span is between 15 and 18 years of age for most indoor cats.

For outdoor cats, about 5-10 years. Cats can even live up to and over 30 years old but it is rare. I own 6 cats at present and have had 2 of them for 15 years and they are still going very strongly so they may reach 20, oh and they are outdoor cats.

To be less specific on the age you could expect anything from 15 to 25 years from the average cat, just get them neutered and make several trips to the vets every year to keep them clean and in good health.

Answer 3

In the freezer, you've got 2 to 3 months. Fridge, about a week. Hope this helps.

^ I decided to give a real answer to this question. Although whoever wrote this was pretty funny lol.

Indoor cats live an average of 12 to 20 years. A very large range when you think about it... but like people, natural causes cause some to die young and some very old.

I have two cats who will turn 15 in March.

Answer 4

The average lifespan of a cat is 15-17 years.

The life expectancy of any cat is considerably shorter if allowed to go outside, as they may become prey to other animals (such as dogs, coyotes), hit by cars, abused by strangers, infected by diseases and parasites and exposed to extremes in temperature and weather conditions.

Answer 5

It depends on were you live (around traffic, etc.) and if the cat gets its vaccines. I have two cats who live indoors/outdoors and they are both 14. However, on average, outdoor cats live to only about four years.
Up to 12 -18 years. We have had a cat roaming our neighborhood for about 12 years. We call him the town cat. He survives all weather, all attacks by other animals, as well as never getting hit by a car. However, we never know when he will not be seen again.
