Cat Behavior Survey!

by Dr. James Serpell
(University of Pennsylvania, PA)

The School of Veterinary Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania is in the process of developing a new online survey tool for evaluating the behavior and temperament of domestic cats.

The goal is to create a feline equivalent of the Canine Behavioral Assessment and Research Questionnaire (C-BARQ; http://www.cbarq.org) to help pet owners, behavior counselors, animal rescue shelters, and cat researchers understand the behavior and behavioral problems of Felis catus.

This survey represents the first stage in the development of a standardized and validated questionnaire for use in the behavioral assessment of domestic cats. The survey takes approximately 15-20 minutes to complete. Here is the link:
