Re: how long did ....

Did a quick google for you, average lifespan 5-7 years with a real accomplishment age of 10.

Somehow I thought they would live longer than that! Might do a more in depth google for you lol.

Re: how long did ....

Mine is 5 and he got a little sick, I took him to a vet clinic last week.
My vet said that usually their life expectancy is about 6 years (yes, with exceptions of 8 to 10).

I also thought that such intellectual animals would live longer...
