Frequently Asked Questions

How do I calculate my pet's age in human years?

The old rule of multiplying by 7 is inaccurate. Dogs age faster in early years: a 1-year-old dog is roughly equivalent to a 30-year-old human. After age 2, each dog year equals about 4-5 human years, varying by breed size. Cats reach human equivalence of 15 at age 1.

How much sleep do different age groups need?

Newborns need 14-17 hours, infants 12-15, toddlers 11-14, preschoolers 10-13, school-age children 9-11, teens 8-10, adults 7-9, and seniors 7-8 hours. Consistency matters more than exact hours. Going to bed and waking at the same time improves sleep quality significantly.
