Cat Life Spans
Our companion animals have much shorter life spans than humans. Our main objective is to give our dogs and cats the longest and healthiest life we can through good nutrition, healthy exercise and proper veterinary care. The average cat lives to around twelve years of age, but it can vary greatly by breed. The following gives you a list of breeds and their average life span.

Our oldest lived to be 18, that was quite a few years ago. Conrad is doing his best to be with us at least that long. We believe he’s coming up on at least 17 around now.

Eighteen is a pretty long life for a cat…but I guess if you have nine of them…

ok I’m a dumbass and this comment was suppose to go on the other post. As for this one it’s nice to look up a breed and see the longevity then you have a idea about how long they will live.
