RIP Purdy, he died. so you know in TNP, we meet Purdy and he is already "old" by then, right? so how old was he then if he lived through TNP, Po3, OotS and AVoS? how many years have passed between TNP all the way through AVoS? let's say he was 10 years old in TNP?

a bump just to get away from the fandom discourse.

Erika stated on the old forums that he was around the same age as Mousefur, but he always acted much older. And since Mousefur was around 10 when she died, I think Purdy was younger than that.

*Faith*what? :^O i didnt know that. but i always thought Purdy was actually old though, and he just had a super long life span? I haven't read Midnight in a long time, so I don't know the context, but I can remember he was described as being old and senile already, right?

*Faith*then that is kind of strange...i always thought Purdy was actual elder age by the time he joined, which is why he was always an elder. he couldnt have been the same age as mousefur?

Maybe Purdy has perpetual old man syndrome.

Mousefur literally became an elder in Starlight if I'm not mistaken. The Journeying cats met Purdy in Moonrise. So he might actually be a little older than Mousefur. But even so him being around her age isn't much of a stretch.

Mousefur retired not long after they met Purdy. And he was probably too old to learn how to be a warrior anyway.

I think he lived to be around the average for a housecat- like 18 or 19 because he was a kittypet for so many years.
