Thanks all of you for all your support!!

Ideally we would like only adult cats but any additional response would be helpful! The more data the more we can get out of the study

That's an interesting study. I did notice that some of those adjectives were only "fitting" in certain circumstances. For example, a cat could be very "sociable" with other cats, but not with humans.

I will answer your questionnaire. We have male and female neuters but your questionnaire doesn't allow for this. It wont let me put male and female.

Yup that's true.I understand that not all cats may have had the opportunity to interact with other cats - but it was suggested it may be possible to judge a cat's 'sociability' based on the cat's interaction with humans
We are interested in sociability at a more general level.
This is only the preliminary part of a bigger study so I'm sorry for all the little design flaws


Thanks for taking part!!

You dont allow facilities for multi-cat households nor for female and male. Your questionnaire only allows for one gender only.

Yes...she said you had to do one survey per cat. If you have more then one you can do it once for each.


I just did it for Lucky...now Rambo will be a whole different story!! I would be really interested to see the results of this!

The questionnnaire is open to both males and females - both options are on the sheet


If you have more than one cat, you are welcome to submit one questionnaire for each cat you own.

Please let me know if you have any other problems!
Perhaps the questionnaire is not displaying properly on your computer.

Hey Lizmarie,
You will need to pick one cat to describe per questionnaire submission! I hope that clears things up a bit!!
And a big thank you for your time

Very cool! I just did mine for Eppie (my oldest cat) and will do one for Cosy in a minute. I cannot wait to find out what your research yields!

It's very cool that you are doing this. I submitted for Captain, if I get time I'll do it for my other two.

Good luck and let us know the results!
