If your cat gets to 20, she's around 97 human years old. Unlike dogs —who have different human age equivalents depending on their size—the formula for cats is universal because they're all roughly the same size. That's why it's probably a good idea to consult this guide on how to care for your kitten. Then, you'll want to make sure you have all the essentials. Probably whenever she stops really listening to you, avoids her chores, and starts spending too much time staring at her phone.

Tartar on the teeth is not an indication of age if they have a poor diet or the opposite if they are getting yearly dental care, nor are missing teeth.
