Cat Owners Survey.

Looking for the old results?
Just a short questionaire to find out about the cats people own. It was hard to design a poll based on multiple ownership, due to questions on cat's individual personalities. If you have more than one cat, could you please repeat the survey for each cat. Thank you.
