How the Cat Age in Human Years Calculator works
The first year of a cat's life counts as 15 human years, the second adds 9 for a total of 24, and every year after that adds 4. Life stages follow the common veterinary groups: kitten up to 6 months, junior up to 3 years, prime to 7, mature to 11, senior to 15, and geriatric after that. Senior cats benefit from vet checkups twice a year. Example: A 5 year old cat is 36 in human years and is in the Prime stage.
