Cat Ages Based on Human Milestones
Warrior cats age equivalents has always been a very sketchy and confusing thing. Many people often just do a linear cat to human age, ex.: 1 month = 1 year, but I've always believed it isn't so straight forward and that warrior cats' age physically and mentally different.
I think the best way to determine a cat's age in relation to a human's age is based on milestones, such as when a toddler takes their first steps, or a kitten first starts eating wet food.
But, as you'll see, there are discrepancies in doing this. For example, humans are often walking better before they're weaned off milk/baby food, while kittens can often be weaned off milk before they're walking without wobbling. Additionally, cats can become sexually mature very young (child age), while that is more rare in humans (though not impossible).
Cat maturity has a different "system" than human maturity, so this is just a close equivalent to help some people visual the ages better.
Cat age = Human age
3 weeks = 2 years - 3 weeks is when weaning off of milk and onto wet food often begins. Similarly, 2 years is considered the "cut-off" for babies breastfeeding. Capable of talking at this point, though communitive abilities differentiate
4 moons = 10* years - cats can become sexually mature at 4 months of age. Generally, afab persons can start puberty at 10 years and technically be "sexually mature"
6 moons = 6* years - when apprenticeship starts is akin to when first grade starts, but I'd personally say 6 moons old feels more akin to a 9-10 year old (4th grader) to me and 4 moons old are the 1st graders, especially considering the next age and context of "sexual maturity"
7 moons = 12 years - most places consider cats "adults" when they are seven months old, as they are mostly done growing. 12 years is generally when puberty begins, so it's technically the opposite (start growing)... but in ye olden days, you could be considered an adult at 12 so. It's the closest equivalent if we are keeping 12 moons = 18 years.
12 moons (1 year) = 18 years - both are when they are considered independent "adults" in their societies
84 moons (7 years) = 40-50 years - 7 years is the "senior" status for cats, when they're "old" adults. Most people call 40 year old's old
120 moons (10 years) = 60-70 years - the "retirement" ages
216 moons (18 years) = 100-110 years - 18 years for a cat is like living past 100 years for a human. Though it should be noted wild/stray cats do not tend to live as long as indoor cats, so this is especially a "rare" age for warrior cats
Based on these milestones, I would put the warrior cats aging as....
Orange, aging rapidly, at a 1 month = 1.5 year rate
0-1 moon = 0-2 years (newborn-toddler)
2 moons = 3 years (toddler)
3 moons = 4-5 years (child)
4 moons = 6 years (child)
5 moons = 7-8 years (child)
6 moons (.5 year) = 9-10 years (pre-teen)
7 moons = 11-12 years (pre-teen)
8 moons = 13-14 years (teen)
Green, aging cools down to 1 month = +1 year equivalent
9 moons = 15 years (teen)
10 moons = 16 years (teen)
11 moons = 17 years (senior teen)
12 moons (1 year) = 18 years (senior teen)
13-16 moons = 19-22 years (young adult)
17-24 moons (2 years) = 23-30 years (young adult)
25-30 moons= 31-36 years (adult)
Red, aging slows down
31-40 moons = 37-38 years (adult)
41-50 moons = 39-40 years (adult)
51-60 moons = 41-43 years (adult)
61-70 moons = 44-46 years (adult)
71-80 moons = 47-49 years (senior adult)
81-90 moons = 50-52 years (senior adult)
91-100 moons = 52-59 years (senior adult)
101-110 moons = 60-64 years (young senior)
111-120 moons = 65-74 years (young senior)
Blue, elder age is hit, aging is still slow, depends on health of cat
121-130 moons (10 years) = 75-81 years (senior)
131-140 moons = 82-88 years (senior)
141-150 moons = 90-94 years (senior)
151-160 moons (12 years) = 95-99 years (senior)
161-215 moons = 100-109 years (centurion)
216+ moons (18 years) = 110+ years (centurion)
Please note that this is just a best guess estimate. Cats age physically and mentally different than humans, which makes it hard to "exact" their ages.
In general, it is accepted that 0-6 moons is a child, 7-12 is a teen, and 13+ is an adult, with some age around 90-100 moons being the elder age.
Thistlestar was around 29-30 moons when Spottedleaf at 12 moons gave birth to Firestar+. Thistlestar would be a 35-36 old adult and Spottedleaf an 18 year old who was impregnated at 17 years. Thistlestar first began grooming/showing interest in her when she was 2-3 years old, and they entered a relationship when she was around 10 human years old and he 23-25 years old.
(This is assuming my cat age for Thistlestar is correct - I'm currently reworking all cats' ages.)

The reborned Kronos and her overprotective baby that the Justice league haven't figured out how to calm down.
Especially when the angry head of the Cultists who were around the sacrifice alter in a circle started shouting at one on the left, which caused the lil baby clinging to Kronos newly form female body to stiffen up and wailed, causing the large glowing spike of ice to emerged and quickly freezes every single one of the cultists.
Martian man has confirmed that Kronos is going through a Major psychic backlash to even move or even speak, point that just taking a peak in her mind, gave Martian man a near concussion from the emotional sensitivity overload and several hundreds of whispering self reflecting thoughts cluttering her consciousness.
The Justice League and the Dark Justice are trying to figure out how to get close to Kronos and her screaming bloody murder child without going through what the cultists went through, especially when the Frozen ice was still spreading slowly widening.
Shazam is going through the worst-case headaches as several voices were screaming, yelling at him to destroy the Mad Time God while Two sounded like they eating popcorn and enjoying the drama. Constantine was about to suggest something until a unknown voice that sounded hoarses spoke.
"...Danny..."
That when the Flash rather quickly saw Kronos's hands twitch. Motioning the other heroes as they all began to watch and wait as Kronos slowly bringing the baby closer to her chest.
"..World is covered by our trails, Scars we cover up with paint.... I would rather see this world through the eyes of a child, , Darker times will come and go..... Times you need to see her smile and mothers' hands are warm.... When a human strokes your skin,That is when you let them in, I would rather feel alive with a childlike soul, with a childlike soul.." Kronos whispered softly to the wailing baby that was slowly calming down. Superman can hear the lullaby even if he couldn't understand what she was saying to the child.
"...it's been a long while I'd entertained the living." Kronos said in a rich soothing voice as she had slowly open her eyes revealing a mesmerizing deep purple color with what seem to be a tiny thousands of clock gears ticking surrounding her pupil, turning to justice league
