How long do cats live?

I had new carpet installed in Dec., kitty started hurling on it last month. It was NO FUN cleaning up those things from my new Berber! So, I bought OTC furball remedy at Wally World, put it on my index finger, wrassled the cat and her hind toenails and sharp teeth, and succeeded in getting half in her mouth and the other half on her face under her eye. Overall, I considered it a victory, because she had to wipe her face off with her paw, and lick the paw off, and I didn't get hurt!
Then my daughter tells me that IAMS makes furball kitty food. TA DA! Her feeder now has a mix of her regular kitty food and IAMS. No furball hurling in over a month!
