Human lifespan is limited, so are cats. In the cat world, the longest-lived cat can live to 20 years old, and those with a shorter lifespan can only live to 9 to 10 years old. Today, the five types of cats I want to introduce to you have a lifespan of less than 12 years. Please cherish it if you keep it!
1. Exotic shorthair cats live: 6~8 years
Character: Loyal, friendly, docile, clingy
Exotic shorthair cats, which we often call Garfield cats, are cultivated according to human preferences, so they have many diseases. For example, it is prone to dyspnea, tear marks, and heart disease.
Exotic shorthair cats have poor physical fitness, are not properly cared for, often get sick, and have a short lifespan. Therefore, the pet owner who raises a Garfield cat must cherish the time he spent with it.
2. Mankikan's dwarf cat
Life-life: 10~12 years
Personality: optimistic, friendly, delicate, and emotionally
Mankikan's cat is also called short-legged cat, corgi cat, and dachshund cat because of its short legs and long body. Although their legs are short, they can jump and climb, but they are a little weak in fighting.
Mankikan cats are not cats with gene mutations. They have no problems. They have a lively and cheerful personality. They like to play with their owners and are like children, but their average lifespan is quite short.
3. Maine cats
Life-life: 12 years
Character: brave, loyal, bold, smart, Maine cats are very large, and the lifespan of large cats is generally quite short. Maine cats look domineering, but have a very gentle personality. They like to be with their owners and can live in harmony with humans and other small animals. They are very good pet companions.
It is best to have a larger living space when raising Maine cats, because they require exercise. Pet owners can also take Maine cats out for a walk, which is very cool!
4. Scottish fold cats
Life-life: 10 years
Personality: docile, smart, humane
Scottish fold cats are cats that are mutations from genes. The fold cats are sweet, cute and cute, and can hit people's cute points. However, this cat has congenital cartilage insufficiency, which will be very painful once the disease occurs, and there is no way to cure it.
Therefore, the lifespan of the Scottish Fold cat is relatively short, generally no more than 10 years. The pet owner who raises it must cherish the time he spent with it!
However, the Scottish folding cat is very smart and good at communicating with its owner. The owner who raises it can occasionally play with it with some snacks and do some training, and the cat will become very obedient.
5. Pastoral cats
Life-life: 8~10 years
Personal cats: independent, wild, bold, loyal
Pastoral cats are our native Chinese cats. They have good physical fitness, strong adaptability, good at catching mice, and low feeding costs. Although sometimes pastoral cats are a bit fierce and do not have relatives, once they recognize their master and raise them, they will be very clingy and loyal to their masters.
When the pastoral cat feels that they have little time, they will choose to run away from home and never come back. The reason why pastoral cats are generally short in lifespan is that, first, pastoral cats are prone to various accidents, and second, dietary reasons.
Therefore, for the sake of the health of the cat, pets should pay special attention to dietary issues. Do not feed leftovers to cats. Leftovers are not nutritious enough. It is easy for cats to eat for a long time to be malnourished and picky. It is recommended to feed cat food as the main food. Pet owners can choose a nutritious cat food as the staple food for cats, which can ensure the health of the cat.
