I don't know how you can determine her age yourself. If it were me, I would take her to a Vet. and they could tell you an approximate age. (I think they can tell by her teeth, but I could be wrong.)

It would be good to take her to a Vet anyway, to get a complete checkup and make sure she's healthy, and make sure she's up to date on all of her shots, and get her spayed if that hasn't been done already.

If you do take her to the Vet. and the Vet. gives you an approximate age, ask the Vet how they can tell, and then come back and post it on here. I'd be interested in knowing that, too, just for curiosity's sake.

the vet check her teeth to confirm her AGe ....hehehe ..
and also the nurse ..
i asked 2 of them ..

**Soapets** · 03-11-2005, 11:41 PM

Well, how old IS she?????

What is it about their teeth that tells them how old the cat is?

**chenchern** · 03-11-2005, 11:44 PM

the doctor said she is about 4 or 5 years ..
i think its depends on the teeth length or size ... obviously ..
but im not too sure .................how they see it ....

**Soapets** · 03-12-2005, 12:20 AM

Or maybe by how many teeth they have, and their size and condition, etc.?

Is she healthy overall? Has she been spayed? How much does she weigh, and did they give her any shots, etc.?

**chenchern** · 03-12-2005, 08:04 AM

ohh i got her ... since last 6 weeks ago ... so i took her to spayed 2 days ago .. and she has to admit there for 1 weeks .. miss her so much ............. she will be fine ??? is spayed dangerous ?

what u mean by shot ?

she is really adorable ............

Being spayed is a major surgery, but she should get through it just fine. When my cat, Angel, was spayed, she only had to stay overninght for one night, then we got to bring her home.

The shots are vaccinations to prevent them from getting common illnesses that can be very dangerous to cats. Some of the shots have to be repeated yearly, others every 3 years or so. That's the way we do it here, anyway.

Thanks for the picture. She is a BEAUTIFUL cat!

I'm not sure what you mean, but they usually will shave their tummies down where they do the surgery, and she will have stitches there most likely. She should heal just fine...

I'm glad you went to see her.

**kaoK'okung** · 03-13-2005, 03:56 AM
