Study of the feline behaviour


Hello everybody,
I hope I am typing in the right section.
I am a veterinarian and I am writing my master thesis in etology at the university of Pisa.
At the moment I am collecting, in cooperation with the university, some data on the behaviour of cats through some questionnaires. The study of the feline behaviour, in comparison with the dogs’ behaviour, is a little bit underestimated, therefore there are not many data available on this topic.
For this reason, I am asking you if you are willing to help me with this project, by filling in a simple questionnaire which will enable us to better understand our feline friends.
For a statisticalmatter, the cats taking part in this study must have an age between three and ten years.
Those who are interested in having the questionnaire, can write to me at the following e-mail address:
grazia-71@hotmail.it
Thanks a lot for your collaboration.

I'd love to participate, but my girl is a year over the limit - 11. PM me if that would be acceptable; and good luck!

My eldest cat, Kizzy could be between 2 and 3 - her age range when I adopted her was between 1 - 2. Are you able to accept an estimated age? If so I would be interested in helping with the questionnaire.
