Like over 150 years in human terms.
That’s a really ooooooooooooooooooolllllllllllllllddddddddddddddddd cat!
I had a cat that made it to 18. Sis had one that made it to 21.
My daughter would like to hear this...she is in denial and refuses to believe our cat will eventually die. We are a little unsure of the cat’s age...but at least 18.
That face shows the experience and travails of an extreme old warrior.
LOL and he’s got that look like: get it over with already - will ya, geez these people just yammer on and on...
From the article, “Age has taken it’s toll on her... nothing that some cortisone and better eating hasn’t cured”. WE should all be that lucky!
My folks had two orange litter mates that made it to 19 and 20 - Billy and Stubby. There are many claims on the web for cats in their 30’s - hard to prove.
We have a 22 yr old siamese. She’ll be 23 in Dec. She can still make it to her food bowl and uses the litter box. Her vision is fading and her back legs have a bit of arthritis. Don’t expect her to make it much longer but I said that when she turned 20. /;o) ~
She looks thirty.
Nice kitteh.
Long live the Swede cat!
Pretty, wise looking kitty! Long, long life for an outdoor cat, too.
I’ve always adopted adult shelter cats-except for my 7yr. old orange mostly-Persian, Titus-I fostered him as a 2 month old kitten for the shelter, and we just could not let him go to someone else.
I’ve adopted cats as old as 14, and a few who were not going to live a long life because of past injury-I provide them with a safe, indoor life, food, toys, love, 2 or three other cats to be with, and my cat loving Siberian Husky to curl up to in Winter. My cats live to be 18-20 on the average, and I had one live to be 22. My Husky is 16 and still chases squirrels-that Cosamine they advertise on TV works...
Grizabella cat!!
I have a cat over 19, he eats Alley Cat dry food for about 15 of those. His claws don’t retract and he gets hung up every now and then but doing ok.
My oldest lived to be 19, she was a diluted calico born in 1987. I have 2 cats, Spunky who will be 15, she is next to me as I type this and Rascal who will be 8. Spunky had three kittens in 2001 but they all passed on, just got Mom left out of the family. Greystone was a grey & white tuxedo cat, he passed at the age of 5 from kidney failure, G.W, had cancer at 10 and the girl, Whitey had kidney failure at 11. Whitey looked like a purebred Snowshoe Cat although she was most likely half or quarter Snowshoe. Whitey was named because she was all white as a kitten except for the grey ears and tail. Whitey would hiss at the TV when Obama came on and also swat him on the screen.
You cannot fool these creatures.
