How Old Is a 7-Year-Old Cat in Human Years?
International Cat Care counts a cat's first year as about 15 human years and the second as about 9 more, so a two-year-old cat is roughly 24. After that each calendar year adds about 4 human years. A 7-year-old cat is therefore about 44 in human years.
iCatCare divides a cat's life into six stages: kitten (up to 6 months), junior (7 months to 2 years), adult (3–6 years), mature (7–10), senior (11–14) and super senior (15 and over). At 7 a cat is in the "Mature" stage.
