Cat Vs Human Ages
Is your cat a teenager, a young adult, a
senior?

How old is your cat in comparison to you? Even
though your pet is only as old as she feels, here are some basic guidelines.

Alternatively, since cats reach maturity in
approximately 1 year, that could be seen as 16 in human terms. Then add
about 4 years for every year your cat ages.
A 5 year old cat would then be:
(5-1) x 4 +16 = 32 in human terms
A 10 year old cat would then be:
(10-1) x 4 + 16 = 52 in human terms
