How Old is My Pet? Correctly Calculate Your Dog or Cat's Age!

[gunslingingbird]

Most people think that calculating the age of dogs and cats in "human years" is quite simple: multiply their age by seven. For example, a 4-year-old dog or cat would actually be 28 years old in human years.

But when you really begin weighing out the arithmetic, this method doesn't add up. Say a 1-year-old dog is the equivalent of a 7-year-old human -- get out of here! How many 7-year-old humans are sexually active and capable of reproducing? Dogs and cats are much more likely to have babies at 1 year old or even at 10 years old, than any person who is 7 or 70.

So, how old is Whimsy?

I saw this article this morning. You know your ****** is old when they can't move well any more or die.

So, how old is Whimsy?

Late 40's early 50's.

My cat is 76.

I'm going to be pretty busted up when he goes.

Thanks for clearing that up for us.

My cat is 76.

I had a cat that died when she was almost 19. It was pretty rough when cancer took over her body and we had to put her to *****.

I have a harder time keeping it together when a pet dies, compared to a ****** member. Doesn't make any sense. I'm going to need a 6 month leave of absence when my cat dies. My Nani died and I was back to work the next day.

Damn, Peyton, my Jack Russel Terrier, is 64.

I will be inconsolable for several days when I have to put him down. Best dog ever.

So, to clarify my earlier statement, my cat has been a constant presence, beginning in happy times, through excruciating times, to present times. The consistency of lovable companionship, the devotion, and the constant cuddle friend...

Can't replace that. There may be a successor, but never a replacement.

dammit. It's a fucking cat. How has this happened?

Cats age by a multiple of 10 after a certain age... I forgot which.

As for Whimz, did he annul his engagement? Did I miss a posty or sumthin? :dunno:

Back to cats for a sec... I find it hilarious how everybody's cat is the greatest cat of all time... even if the cat's master has ********, their cat is still the greatest! Poor ****. :rofl:
