The formula to know about the cats age in human years is
Allow 15 human years for the first year of your cat’s life.
Add nine years for the second year. A two-year old cat will approximate 24 human years.
Add four human years each for successive years of his life.
When all else fails, refer to the chart.

Actually, for dogs, that is not very accurate. They now have a new scale. For cats, click on the link below.

I think it’s the same as human years. So my cat, Squeaky is 5, so that’s equivalent to 5 in human years. Dogs are every 7 years, so they seem much older.

Actually that's incorrect. The average human lives about 70 years old, that means that the average cat lives to about 70 years also. And can you stop posting links to your Twitter feeds!?
