Just about everyone is familiar with that old saying that how a dog ages seven years for every one of our human years. Applying that principle to cats is inaccurate.

As you can see from the chart below, the differences vary from year to year. Life expectancy in cats does not vary by breed, but by lifestyle. An indoor cat who is well cared for stands a much better chance of living much more longer than an outdoor cat who only sees the vet for emergencies.
