Cat Lifespans

"Cat Lifespans" delves into the fascinating disparity between indoor and outdoor cat longevity, revealing how environmental factors can create a dramatic difference in life expectancy - from 2-4 years for outdoor cats to 12-18 years for their indoor counterparts.

This comprehensive exploration combines veterinary research, GPS tracking studies, and population data to uncover the complex factors influencing feline survival rates. The book progresses logically through three main sections, beginning with fundamental feline biology and natural survival mechanisms, then examining the stark contrasts between indoor and outdoor environments, and concluding with practical guidelines for optimizing cat longevity.

Through collaborative research with veterinary institutions across North America and Europe, it presents compelling statistical analyses of mortality causes in both populations, while exploring how urban development and human social patterns impact cat survival. What sets this work apart is its methodical integration of multiple scientific disciplines, combining veterinary medicine with behavioral ecology and environmental science.

The author maintains an evidence-based approach while offering practical applications for veterinary professionals, animal welfare workers, and cat owners. The inclusion of case studies, specific protocols for cat care, and environmental enrichment strategies makes complex scientific concepts accessible and actionable, helping readers make informed decisions about their pets' lifestyle and care options.
