Cats age differently from humans so we say a cat has a certain age in "cat years" versus human years. Relative to humans, cats age quickly for the first two years and then slow down. A cat that is one year old in human years is years old in cat years, and a cat that is two years old in human years is years old in cat years. After the second year, we say four cat years are added for every human year that passes. If a cat is in human years, how old are they in cat years?
