While domestic cats regularly live to 18 years old, the hairless Sphynx breed has an average life expectancy of just 6.8 years, the lowest of any domestic breed of cat, according to new research.This could be due to “several breed-predisposed diseases,” researchers from the Royal Veterinary College in the United Kingdom and the National Chung Hsing University in Taiwan wrote in a study published Wednesday in the Journal of Feline Medicine and Surgery.
The team studied the clinical data of 7,936 cats that were registered with vets in the UK and died between Jan. 1, 2019 and March 31, 2021. They found that the average life expectancy for cats in the UK was 11.7 years, and female cats could expect to live 1.33 years longer than males.
