[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For those whose cats lived 19+ years, what do you attribute it to? How often did they see the vet? Did you do treatments that prolonged their lives? [/quote] Mine lived to be 19 and had very little vet attention at all, for years I honestly could not afford it. She developed mammary cancer at 18, had surgery, had a very good year, then went downhill pretty fast. My sister had one of her kittens. Lived in a semi-rural area and it was a mostly outside cat. Cat didn't get spayed until she was 16 and had had a litter in a closet in the house. A couple of years later my sister developed cancer and couldn't keep the cat due to her chemo, so I took the cat. She lived until 23, this year. Also minimal vet care. She started dropping weight her last year, I considered vet but opted to let nature take its course, which in the end it did. [/quote]
