Cats are small and cute, and they are very cute and are loved by many friends. So, how do you tell the age of a cat? Can you judge the age of a cat?

We can judge the age of a cat by observing its teeth. An adult cat has a total of 30 teeth. A young cat has a total of 26 teeth. The cat's teeth from both sides to the middle are: upper row - molars, large molars, premolars, canines, 6 incisors, lower row - large molars, premolars, canines, 6 incisors.

The specific growth status of cat teeth:

Teeth begin to grow around 14 days

At the age of 2 to 3 weeks, the deciduous incisors are fully elongated. When nearly two months old, all the deciduous teeth are fully grown, white, thin and pointed

Replace the first deciduous incisor at 3 to 4 months of age. Replace the second and third deciduous incisors and canine teeth at 5 to 6 months of age.

After the age of 6 months, all permanent teeth are replaced. At the age of 8 months, the permanent teeth are all long, white and bright, and the upper parts of the incisors are pointed.

1-year-old mandibular second incisor's large peak is worn until the small peak is flush. This phenomenon is called peak obliteration

2 years old, the peak of the second mandibular incisor is obliterated

3 years old, the peak of maxillary first incisor is obliterated

4 years old, the peak of the maxillary second incisor is obliterated

5 years old, the peak of the third mandibular incisor is slightly worn, and the wear surface of the first and second mandibular incisors is rectangular

5.5 years old, the tip of the third mandibular tooth is obliterated and the canine teeth are blunted

6.5-year-old mandibular first incisor is worn to the root of the tooth, and the wear surface is longitudinally oval

7.5-year-old mandibular first incisor is worn and tilted forward

8.5 years old, the wear surfaces of the second mandibular and first maxillary incisors are longitudinally oval

9 to 16 years old, incisor teeth fall out and canine teeth are uneven
