Frequently Asked Questions

Why adopt a senior cat?▾
Senior cats are calm, affectionate, and low-maintenance. Their personalities are fully developed so you know exactly what you are getting. They are often the hardest to place, so adopting one makes a huge impact.
How old is a senior cat?▾
Cats are generally considered senior at 7-10 years old. With proper care, indoor cats commonly live to 15-20 years, so a senior cat can still have many happy years ahead.
Are senior cats harder to care for?▾
Not necessarily. Senior cats tend to need less exercise and entertainment than kittens. Regular vet checkups and a good diet are the main considerations.
