The life expectancy of cats. How much does it vary among breeds, what is the average?

1 Beats me, but if this will help, I had one that was 16 when he died. I was devastated if you can believe that! No more pets - you get too attached to them!

2 Isn't that the truth. I love pets but at a minimum, a small cat or dog (not tiny 12-18lbs)can live anywhere from 12 to 16 years with extreme cases of up tp twenty. Cats pretty much follow dogs.

Potential lifespan deals more with weight and size than the 7 per 1 yr rule of thumb assumed with dogs. The larger the breed, the shorter the lifespan and weight acts as a contributing factor. (overweight midsize dog vs. fit midsize, the overweight dog will have a shorter span.)Since small is the only size I've owned personally I can't advise more.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
