"Cat years" versus "human years", according to material provided by the Gaines Research Center, cats will age 15 years in the first year (10 in the first six months!) and 4 years for every year after that. Other vets will say 20 years for the first year, 4 years for each year thereafter.
Most people believe that a year in a dog's life equals seven years of a human's life. Recent medical studies prove this theory wrong. Experts at the University of Pennsylvania School of Veterinary Medicine say that a ratio devised by French veterinarian A. LeBeau is more accurate.
At first glance, I thought he was dangling a big loogie over your keyboard. Lucille drools on my computer a lot, so it seemed only natural that Newt would be doing the same thing.
On a completely unrelated note, did you quit taming turtles? I sent you a tasty Hell Ramen a few weeks ago but you haven't been around KoL to eat it. Get bored with all the bad puns? I'm finished with all the quests, so now things are winding down for my character too. Nothing left for to do now but earn trophies and harvest goodies for my shop. *yawn*
What does Newtie do when he gets a whiff of catnip? One of my cats goes nuts, one could care less...the kitty that ran away (::snuffle::) became a sweetie on catnip. :0)
hahahaha absolutely cuddly adorable......... he makes me think in dinosaur terms cuz you see that lil cat in the corner........like godsnewt vs. godzilla.........hahahhaha

So... Newt is -
31 or 36! You were pretty spot on!
dog years, for completeness
Date: 2004-10-01 05:05 pm (UTC)A puppy at:
3-months old = a 5-year-old child
6-months old = a 10-year-old child
12-months old = a 15-year-old child
A dog at:
2 years = a 24-year-old adult
4 years = a 32-year-old adult
6 years = a 40-year-old adult
8 years = a 48-year-old adult
10 years = a 56-year old adult
14 years = a 72-year-old senior
18 years = a 91-year-old senior
