What the result means
The main result shows approximate human-equivalent cat age. Senior cats usually need more frequent vet monitoring for dental, kidney, thyroid, and weight issues.
Cat human age = 15 for year 1, 24 for year 2, then +4 years for each additional cat year
Indoor cats often have lower environmental risk than outdoor cats, but diet, weight, dental care, and genetics remain important.
Example calculation
A 6-year-old cat is about 24 + (6 - 2) × 4 = 40 human years.
Tips for better results
- Track weight changes monthly.
- Increase vet screening as senior age approaches.
- Use indoor enrichment to support activity.

Indoor cats often face fewer accident and disease risks, although health care, diet, and weight still strongly affect lifespan.
When is a cat considered a senior?
Many cats are considered senior around age 11, with mature care needs often starting earlier.
How often should senior cats see a veterinarian?
Senior cats commonly benefit from vet visits at least twice per year, especially for dental, kidney, thyroid, and weight checks.

Older cats may need weight tracking, dental exams, bloodwork, kidney screening, thyroid checks, and mobility assessment.
