Cat brains age like humans: Translating Time shows pet cats live to be natural models for human aging

2025-08-01

Abstract excerpt

Translating biological time across species is a powerful tool to identify new models of human aging and disease. Currently, it is not clear whether any animal reaches an age comparable to a human in their 80s. Most species seem to age differently compared with humans. Some preliminary observations suggest that cats may share common patterns of aging with humans. Cats could serve as a promising model for human agin...
