I have noticed today thay Rameses(who is 15 months young)well today he seems a lot taller than he did yesterday,is it possible for him to have a growth spirt at 15 months?
-
Charlie is about 17 months and we keep noticing he is getting bigger and more stocky.
-
Allegedly cats grow until they are about 2 yrs old, however, there is one breed Maine Coon I think that grows until it is about 4.
-
Many pedigree breeds are slow maturing and will continue to grow until they are 3 or 4 years old. Mosi is still growing and he will be 3 in December. For moggies, it can vary but most are done with skeletal growth by a year - 18 months, although they will continue to fill out after that and develop more muscle.

i think jasper thinks he's a ped.... i'm not sure he'll ever stop growing!
-
Here he is trying to show that he's longer than Cymro :innocent:
-
Many of the big pedigree breeds grow till 4 years old , so any moggy who has some ped genes down the line will prob grow for longer too......maybe thats why misa is so huge :rofl:
-
Most cats have finished growing by 12-18 months old (a lot of ped breeds are the same although some take longer). Different story though if you have NFCs as they carry on growing until they are 5 years old and Maine Coons are about 4 years when they stop.
Edited for sentence not making sense due to writing the same word twice, doh!
