Cat Years Calculator

Cats age on a very different curve than the old "×7" rule suggests — fast in the first two years, then roughly 4 human years per cat year after that.

The chart this uses

This follows the widely used veterinary reference chart (consistent with guidance from International Cat Care and the American Association of Feline Practitioners): a cat's first year is roughly equivalent to 15 human years, the second year adds about 9 more (24 total by age 2), and each year after that adds roughly 4 human years. A cat is already comparable to a human teenager by its first birthday — a much faster early curve than the old flat ×7 rule ever captured.
