Understanding the age of your feline friend compared to human years can be fascinating. Here’s a quick guide to help you convert cat years to human years.
- First Year: A cat’s first year is equivalent to 15 human years.
- Second Year: By the second year, a cat is roughly 24 years old in human terms.
- Each Additional Year: Every subsequent year after the second year adds about 4 human years to a cat’s age.
For example, a 5-year-old cat would be about 36 human years old (24 human years for the first two years + 12 human years for the next three years).
