Is your pet a senior/geriatric…
or, in other words a member of the

"Over 50 Club"?

The age at which pets enter their senior or geriatric years is dependent on body weight. This table was developed to help you determine if your pet is senior or geriatric. On it you can find the relative age in "human years" of your pet. Please circle your pets corresponding "human age". For example, a 9 year old dog weighing 70 pounds is 61 in "people" years (senior) while a 14 year old cat is 72 (geriatric).
