The average lifespan of a cat is 12 to 15 years. However, different cat breeds, living habits, and living environments also have an impact on the life span of cats. Generally, domestic cats live an average of about 2-5 years longer than stray cats. Paying more attention to your cat's condition and providing daily care can effectively extend your cat's life.

Methods to extend the life of a cat:

1. Use a comb to comb the cat's hair to keep the hair smooth, reduce floating hair, promote blood circulation and extend the life of the cat.

2. Cats can be sterilized to reduce the risk of endometritis, breast tumors, pyometra, etc. in female cats, and to reduce the risk of prostate hypertrophy, testicular tumors, etc. in male cats. Extend the life of your cat.

3. Regular physical examinations should be performed on cats to prevent cat diseases.

4. Cats also need to be dewormed regularly to prevent gastrointestinal, skin and other problems caused by parasite infection.

5. Cats also need to be vaccinated regularly and on time to improve their immunity and resist the invasion of certain pathogens.

6. Cats also need to clean their mouths regularly to prevent periodontal disease caused by oral problems.

7. It is also necessary to give cats enough water to prevent urinary tract diseases caused by lack of water.

8. Cats should regularly expel the hair balls from their stomach to prevent problems caused by hair ball blockage and hair ball syndrome.

9. It is necessary to control the cat’s diet to ensure balanced nutrition and increase the cat’s amount of exercise. Cats that are too fat or too thin will greatly shorten their lifespan. Excessive obesity can also cause heart disease, diabetes, arthritis and other problems.
