The blotched genet typically lives for eight to fifteen years, although the maximum recorded lifespan is twenty-two years and nine months, with a theoretical lifespan ranging from eleven years and four months to twenty-two years and nine months. The species reaches sexual maturity between eleven months and two years of age. During the embryo stage, the fetus develops inside the mother. The young are born blind and helpless, and the mother feeds them milk and protects them in a den for a period lasting from one month and one week to three months. Following this, the adult stage begins, with individuals capable of hunting and reproducing, and lasting from two years and nine months to eight years and three months.
