So, how long does a Cavalier live? 9 to 14 years—with a bit of luck, a lot of vet visits, and no table scraps. That’s about 63 to 98 human years. Long enough to be your best friend. Short enough to make every day count.
Embrace the drama. Cavaliers are like a good novel: short chapters, intense emotion, and a beautiful ending. You just have to write the story while they’re here.
Go hug your Cavalier now. Then check their teeth. And maybe buy stock in pet insurance.
