With good care, cats now living longer, happier lives

Vicky Pike's cat lived to be 20 years old, Tami Wilson notes in this comment on the good news that Max the Manx is settling in, in his middle age at 8, in a good new home

Tami Wilson writes:
As a "cat person." I'm also so happy that Max has a good home to go to. Eight years is really just younger middle age for a cat, these days, since the average age for a cat's lifespan has increased over the years, especially for indoor cats who are fed good quality food and get vet care when necessary. I've had a cat live to be 17, and friends, including Vicky Pike, have had cats live into their late teens and early 20s. I hope Max has a healthy and happy life ahead. - Tami Wilson
Comments re article 66025 Happy Ending Loving home found for Max the Manx Cat. And a note: Thanks, Tami Wilson. CM has been shamefully short of cat pictures, and cats and kittens for adoption. And cat anecdotes. We appreciate your sharing this note. And - by the way - I'm wondering what most often cuts a cat's life short. A quick guess: motor vehicles. - ED
