So is there a official answer for the catgirl lifespan?

[Achille12345]

Just like the title says, so far a lot of people agree to say their lifespan is probably the same of normal cats so maybe 10-20 years, but if this is true that's really sad.

I know someone who will have to go to the funeral of 5 of his wives in 10-20 years I know the game won't go that far but damn.

Personally, I believe since they have human forms their lifespan might be higher, maybe 40-50 years which is a bit more acceptable or so I like to believe.

Maybe the genetic engineers figured out how to combine the best of both worlds: have them reach maturity (both physically and mentally...somehow) in about 9 months, but still live for many decades. Ha, if only.

But I don't remember seeing anything official myself.

[Achille12345]

I truly want to know thought too bad I guess, I will continue to believe they live up to 40-50 until confirmation from the game creator.

A 40 year old catgirl
I can't seem to imagine it

The lifespan of a regular cat otherwise they would grow up like regular humans and kashou has been having sex with kids that range from 1~3

I see your point. But OTOH, that will be a bit sad for him in just a few years. Besides, what is a "kid" varies from one species to another. That's why I based it on "maturity" above, whatever that means for them.

Well im sure cats/dogs can be considered young adults/adults sometime after their first year so yeah

1-3 in cat years so nbd.

OT: As we already know they rapidly grow to the full extent between 1-3 years compared to a human but if I had to guess they stop aging after those initial few years and can go for as long as 20-30 years (maybe less) since you seem to make an agreeable point as I can't imagine them either to be as old as 40 since they're technically still cats but they're hybrids of both human and cat so it's possible that they inherited a human trait that allows them to age as long as a regular human.

That's wishful thinking. Which I do share. But I can't honestly assume it's the case in the Nekopara world. It's one of those things we have to let Sayori answer eventually, assuming she wants to.

they're hybrids of both human and cat

They were stated to be "genetically modified humanoid cats". I take that to mean their DNA is at least mainly that of Felis catus. It's unclear what the "humanoid" part entails. If we're being realistic, they probably would have had to use some human genes in order to make their anatomy more human-like.

(Something to think about: not only do these creatures seem to reach adulthood in under a year, they seem to possess a mind of roughly equal intelligence to that of an adult human. They do so about 20 times faster than a human. How on earth do they manage this? And, this being the case, does it mean they are in some sense superior to humans?)

so it's possible that they inherited a human trait that allows them to age as long as a regular human.

Still wishful thinking. But I still share it, of course. :-)

a lot of humans are too stupid these days so this could be a very capable replacement.

By official, he means "offical"...

[fllthdcrb]

That site is an interesting read, but it's not official, it's a fan work. Which should be obvious, anyway, but...

"How long is the average lifespan of a catgirl?
The catgirl lifespan is heavily dependent on her breed, although most breeds can life for up to 90 years under good care. Some breeds, however, won't live much longer as your average cat."

They actually surpassed the average lifespan of a human. They might actually take over.
