An outdoor cat's lifespan averages to 5 years and an indoor cat's lifespan averages 15 years.
from the humane society web site:
"The estimated average life span of a free-roaming cat is less than three years-compared to 15-18 years for the average indoor-only cat."
AnswerAnywhere from birth to about 20 or 25 human years depending on the cats health, past records, and how well it is bein gtreated now!
AnswerIn captivity, indoor cats typically live 14 to 20 years, though the oldest-known cat lived to age 36. Domestic cats tend to live longer if they are not permitted to go outdoors (reducing the risk of injury from fights or accidents and exposure to diseases) and if they are spayed or neutered. Neutered male cats cannot develop testicular cancer, spayed female cats cannot develop ovarian cancer and both have a reduced risk of mammary cancer.

A Cornish Rex is a specific breed of domestic cat. Unlike most cats, which have a three layered fur coat, Cornish Rex only have the undercoat. Domestic cats generally live 12 to 14 years in captivity.
The average life span of an outdoor cat is 4 years. Indoor cats live on average 12-15 years.
It's not unusual for most breeds of domestic cat to live to around 15-18 years on average. That works out at about 105-126 cat years. At the lower end of the scale there are certain breeds that are lucky to live to 10 (70 cat years), and at the top end, some individual cats have been known to reach 25 (175 cat years). Any cat that lives past 20 (140 cat years) is doing very well!
Probably not due to parasites. Feral cats live an average of 3 years. A pet cat kept indoors can live 20 years.
