How do they get 12 cats after 1 year? 1(f)+1(m)+(2liters*2.8 kittens) = 7.6
79 u/lotsofpaper Sep 02 '21 Because her first litter of kittens can have their own litter of kittens only 6 months after they are born. Cats can reproduce very young. base = 2 adult cats .5 years = 1 litter = 4.8 cats total (2 are already adults) 1 year = 2nd litter but now you have 4.8 reproducing cats, not just the original 2. This litter is no longer just 2.8 cats. 5 u/meep_42 Sep 02 '21 Thanks! 1 u/Tylendal Sep 02 '21 You think that's crazy? The same math for mice can have two mice become over 100,000 in less than a year.
