AAHA & WSAVA Feline Health & Nutritional Metrology
Cats mature rapidly during their first two years, then age at a steady rate of 4 human years per calendar year:
- Year 1: Equals 15 human years (completes adolescence).
- Year 2: Equals 24 human years (full adult maturity).
- Year 3+: Human Age = 24 + (Cat Age - 2) ×
4.
WSAVA Daily Caloric Equations
- Resting Energy Requirement (RER): RER = 70 × (Weight in kg)^0.75
- Maintenance Energy Requirement (MER):
- Indoor Spayed/Neutered Adult: 1.2 × RER
- Active Outdoor / Intact Adult: 1.4 × RER
- Senior / Weight Loss: 1.0 × RER
- Growing Kitten: 2.0--2.5 × RER
Feline Age Conversion Chart
- 6 Months: = 10 Human Years (Kitten)
- 1 Year: = 15 Human Years (Junior)
- 2 Years: = 24 Human Years (Junior)
- 5 Years: = 36 Human Years (Prime Adult)
- 9 Years: = 52 Human Years (Mature Adult)
- 14 Years: = 72 Human Years (Senior)
- 18 Years: = 88 Human Years (Geriatric)
How to Use This Calculator
Enter your Cat Age (Years) (e.g. 5), Cat Age (Months) (e.g. 0), Cat Weight (Pounds lbs) (e.g. 10.0), Activity & Physiological Status — choose from Indoor Spayed / Neutered Adult (1.2 × RER), Active Outdoor / Intact Adult (1.4 × RER), Senior / Weight Loss Plan (1.0 × RER), and Feline Age & Weight Benchmark — choose from Custom Cat Profile, 6-Month Kitten (3.5 lbs / Human 10 yrs), 2-Year Young Adult (9.5 lbs / Human 24 yrs). Results update instantly as you type — adjust any value to compare scenarios.
The Formula
Year 1 = 15 human years
Year 2 = 24 human years (adds 9)
Each subsequent year = +4 human years
WSAVA Caloric requirement: RER = 70 * (wtKg)^0.75
Worked Example
A 2-year-old cat is 24 in human years (young adult), while a 14-year-old senior cat is 72 in human years and needs senior low-calorie, easily digestible proteins.
