Since a lot of sims 2 players use a one day equals one year aging system for their sims; I think that the pet lifespan should also be edited to use the same system. I could not find one online so I just made it myself. I also put the Maxis pet lifespans here so you can compare them to my pet lifespans
Maxis Pet Lifespans
Large Dog
Puppy - 4 days
Adult - 22 days
Elder - 6-11 days
Small Dog
Puppy - 4 days
Adult - 26 days
Elder - 6-11 days
Cat
Kitten - 4 days
Adult -26 days
Elder - 6-11 days
My Pet Lifespans
Large Dog
Puppy - 3 days
Adult - 5 days
Elder - 3-5 days
Small Dog
Puppy - 2 days
Adult - 10 days
Elder - 3-5 days
Cat
Kitten - 2 days
Adult - 9 days
Elder - 2-5 days
Equal Version
If you don't like the large dog lifespan being so much shorter than the small dog lifespan, then you can use the equal version which edits the large dog lifespan to be the same as the small dog lifespan.
Tuning
If you want to edit the lifespans then you just need to open it in SimPE and edit it just like a sim lifespan mod. You just need to be aware that the numbers you put in SimPE are 1 less then the actual lifespan length. (So if I wanted the kitten lifespan to be 4 days I would put the number 3 under Kitten Min and Kitten Max.)
Known Issue
Chris Hatch's neighborhood age correct does not fix pet lifespans so all existing pets in your hoods won't have this aging system until they age up.

About Me
I have another online username of Secondhand Feraligatr. So if you see someone named Secondhand Feraligatr with the same blocky style pokemon profile picture then that is me. I also just created a <a href="https://www.tumblr.com/croconaw-sims">Tumblr</a>. There is not anything on there yet, but in the future I will post stuff on there that you won't find here.
