I have seven outdoor cats. They are all way over two years old. They live in
the hay in the barn in the winter. They burrow holes in the hay and live,
quite cosizly,in dens. I feed and water them. Keith, where did you get your
data?

Someting to bear in mind:

Average lifespan of an outdoor cat = 2 years
Average lifespan of an indoor cat = double digit years
