Cats with dwarfism typically live for 5-8 years. Generally, a cat's lifespan may be affected by dwarfism, as it causes abnormal physical development, makes them more susceptible to disease, and impacts their daily activities and health.

However, cats can live longer if they receive proper care and attention. This includes providing adequate nutrition, regular veterinary checkups, timely treatment of any illnesses, and a good living environment.
