Answer 1

On average, cats have a lifespan of 12 to 15 years. However, some cats can live up to 20 years or more if they are well taken care of. Factors such as diet, exercise, and genetics can all affect a cat's lifespan.

Answer 2

Indoor cats generally live from 12-18 years of age. Many may live to be in their early 20s. The oldest reported cat, Creme Puff lived to be an amazing 38 years old. Outdoor cats generally live shorter lives due to being more likely to be involved in traumas such as motor vehicle accidents or dog attacks.
