It spooked me when I did the math for my intro...

We had 2 indoor-outdoor girl cats that both reached the age of 17 before going to The Bridge.

That is good to know... For most of her life she has been an indoor cat, but last year when my mom got a new frisky Cocker Spaniel puppy she needed to "escape". So we started letting her in the back yard. She never leaves the yard but sure has gotten more fuzzy with the weather. She seems to be having the time of her life now though. She loves basking in the sun on the pool deck and roll around on her back. I love this cat to death, and she's the only one I share my turkey sandwhiches and mc donalds french fries with. The dogs are SOL lmao.

My gentleman friend's cat, Tomas, lived to be almost 22-years-old and he was an indoor/outdoor cat until he was 19! That being said, most outdoor cats do not live to that grand an age. His current cats are inside only, as are my two.

Kuhio was an indoor-outdoor girl. She lived until 17 also.

My Pidgie just went to the Bridge a few days ago and she was approximately 21 1/2. (We could only guesstimate her age when I rescued her.) She lived a healthy life up until just a few weeks ago, so I'm thinking that you have lots of good years yet to enjoy Mercedes.
