In general, cats live longer than most dogs. An average life span might be 12 to 14 years. Some cats are reaching 20 or more. A cat's longevity depends on feeding, genetics, environment, veterinary care and some other factors.

The general consensus is that at about age seven the cat can be considered as 'middle-aged', and at age 10 and beyond - old.
