Determinar age in the cat

The kittens have 26 temp teeth, 14 in superior maxilar and 12 in the inferior one.
They begin approximately to make eruption to two to four weeks of age. The permanent teeth are born approximately to three to four months of age. The cats have 30 permanent teeth, like in the dogs, the ?milk tooth? must fall before the birth of the permanent one.

Until the 4 months, it is determined by the temporary teeth, in greatest is determined by the permanent teeth, but this is influenced by the race of the cat, diet, the position of superior and inferior maxilar and the care that has received from its set of teeth.

We can say that a cat is ?greater? when it has between 8 and 10 years, a greater cat of 12 years is considered geronte, but this classification is arbitrary since him aging is gradual and depends on each animal and its cares.
Our cat of 14 years, does not seem to have that age and I have not noticed any variation in its life, it continues raising paredones, it plays, etc, the only thing perhaps is that to duer a little more to me, but the animal has a suitable sanitary plan, a good feeding and mainly much affection, is very probabe that lives heals until the end of their life, for that reason is very important the preventive medicine.

The record of age of a cat is in 34 years
