How long can a cat surviveA cat kept indoors can live as long

as 21 years or more. (The average age of cats is 12-15 years).

Cats that are indoors-outdoors won’t survive that long because of accidents, fighting with other cats, intentional acts of violence, poisoning( accidental or intentional) and diseases caught from other cats.

A cat without food or water would only survive for 1 week.

 

VaccinationsAll the cats need to

vaccinated to protect them against diseases.

Vaccines are most commonly given by injections.

Cats can also have diseases like for example cancer or heart disease.
