General Guidelines. In general, a kitten is considered an adult cat when it reaches 1 year of age, but your cat may not actually be fully grown at this point. Kittens typically reach a length and weight close to their full-grown size by 9 to 12 months of age.
At one year a cat is about equal in development to a human at age 15. The cat is an adolescent, approaching adult size but not yet fully grown, capable of mating but not likely to be mature enough for really effective parenthood, still kittenish in some ways but becoming more like an adult in other ways. At age 2 a cat is about like a human at age 23, all grown up and established in young adulthood. After that cats age about four times as fast as we do, so you can add four equivalent human years to each additional year of feline age. That makes a cat at age 3 about equal to a human of 27, 4 is like 31, and so on.
