    How old are your cats?

    I'm just curious if there are mostly kittens and one year old kitties here or if there are a few older cats like mine. My cat Sam is 14 years old. I think there are a few other teen kitties here too. So please tell me how old are your cats?

    Yes, I have some teenagers in my family of fur balls My oldest is Shoe-shoo and she is 15 this past July. I also have Snuggles who is 14 this past July. They are mother and son.
    They are both very active and Shoe-shoo is my talker of my bunch of 6 babies. I also have Abraham(Abe for short who was 11 last January. My other three are young yet.
    I think that with good Vet care they are staying healthy and active longer and will be with us for many years. I had a 17 year old cat Duffy that I lost last December. That was the oldest I've ever had a cat live. I have had several cats through year.

    Hi Toastco,

    My cat has been very healthy too, she's only been to the vet to be spayed as a kitten then for yearly shots after that. The only health problems she has had are the occasional hairball and a little extra weight which we changed her diet for.

    Do you have any photos of your cats? I would love to see them. I hope to get some more photos of my cat on here soon.

    Hi Vermontcat
    No, I don't have a scanner or a camera to post the pictures of them. My Abe is black and white and his markings are real close to Sam's markings. In fact when I saw your picture I thought Sam was so pretty! He and my Abe could be brothers they look so much alike. Shoe-shoo is a Calico and Snuggles is yellow and white. I hope to in the future be able to post their pictures. I enjoy seeing all the beautiful babies on pet talk. I some times just get on to see the pictures.

    Sounds like you have a houseful of beautiful cats!

    Actually my cat Sam is a girl - Samantha, we call her Sam or Sammy for short. You should check out a thread under Cat Breeds called Black and White Cats that I did a few weeks ago when I started here. I posted one photo of my cat there and you can see lots of others too.

    I like to see all the kittens pictures here too since its been such a long time since my cat was a kitten and she's my only one.

    Oops --- sorry Sam for calling you a he!!! I should have said you could be a sister to my Abe.
    Thanks for the tip on black and white cats. I will go to that thread and see all of those sweet ones. I have always liked black and white cats. Many years ago I had two black and white one around the time that the Happy Days show was on T V. I named my two balck and white cats Fonzie and Potsey after the two characters on that show. I just notice I spelled black wrong up above here.
    Out of my six, three are strays I took in. Abe came from my brothers cat.
    Thanks again Mom of the six -three teeangers

    We're not sure since they're from the animal rescue group, but we guess they were about 3 when we got them almost 2 years ago.

    My Mimi turned 13 in June of this year.

    Butter, we are unsure about, but think he is probably 4-5 years old. We can't wait for him to outgrow his "playful" stage.

    Thanks for posting everyone!

    It's nice to see we have a good range of ages represented here so far. When we get to a certain number of responses I will total them up and see what is the most common age as well as who is the oldest and youngest here.
