When would a general cross breed cat be considered fully grown?

I think physically the rule of thumb is a year...

Mentally it often takes a while longer some never grow up

Depends on what their mix is I guess. My Kelly I remember we got at around 1 and I don't think he grew any bigger. I have had these two since Jan and they are around 14 months old now. Both are clearly going to be on the large side and both are still growing. Boo has grown hugely in the last month and Bobs nickname is shovel paws. His paws and tail are huge heaven help me if he grows into them.

Can I also ask at what age do adult cats loose there playfullness and are more relaxed being a lap cat? I ask because Shadow is now 20 months and although he still likes to play he only does it in small doses i.e 15 mins each time

I think it is very dependant on breed.I know that Raggies/Maine Coons ect take longer to reach full maturity.How it works with Moggies I dont know ,as they are a mix of different breeds I would think it is in the lap of the gods.I know from watching Meeko who is now 18 months old,he is still growing and filling out,whether he ever "matures"is debatable

Does anyone know when an exotic shorthair is fully grown? Mine are ten months old and look quite petite to me, although their paws are huge!

It really does depend on the breed. Siberians like ours don't reach full adult size until they're 5 years old, but the growth after 1 year is much slower.
