Is your pet a senior or a geriatric?
The age at which dogs and cats enter their senior and geriatric years depends on body weight. This table was developed to help determine which life stage your pet is at, by relating their age to a human’s.
For example, a 9-year old dog weighing 30kg is 61 in human years, making them a senior. A cat typically weighs under 9kg, so at 14 years of age they would be 72 and a geriatric.
Being overweight adds years prematurely to your pet’s life. This table will highlight the number of extra years they are ageing because of their weight, something that’s easily reversed with a healthy weight loss programme. Ask our team for a FREE Weight & Diet Consultation.
