The Secret life of Cats

[PoshPuss]

Just a heads-up. :cat27

Tonight 13th June, at 9pm on BBC 2,
Horizon: The Secret Life of Cats.

Cat cams record the night life of domestic cats in a village in Surrey.

Should make interesting viewing :D

i saw this advertised today, looking forward to watching it as it should be quite interesting!!

[angieh]

Thanks for the reminder, I must put the + box to record this. Sounds fascinating.

(Sorted!)

[pamela81]

we arent getting to watch it at 9pm as it isnt showing up here until 11:20pm!! Got it on record for tomorrow mornings viewing though!

[Shelley123]

thanks for the reminder, going to record this, the results are on tomorrow evening. Sounds good

[Elaine]

Was it any good? I missed it.

[angieh]

There's a follow up on the most interesting subjects tonight at 10.00

[pamela81]

we watched it this morning and really enjoyed it. watching the follow up tonight :)

[Elaine]

Personally I didnt think it told us anything that we didnt already know......

[PoshPuss]

I agree Elaine it was a bit lacking in knowledge despite all the technology. I loved the puddy tats tho, that was one huge Maine Coon!

[angieh]

I think scientists of all sorts just love PROOF which has not been easy to come by before. The glaring gap I wanted filled was whether the cats were neutered or not as surely that would affect their behaviour.

I watched it - loved the cats on there they were cute :)

[Kazz]

I have just watched it and found it very interesting but nothing more than I would have expected - I too would like to know who is neutered and not and also it was a bit hit and miss and got a bit confused whose cat was whose?

[Velvet]

I think most if not all were neutered where they not? They were all mature cats, a mix of ages might have produced more varied results?

I watched a similar programme on Animal Planet last year but without the technology

Lovely cats and nice to see a programme devoted to cats

[Feliss]

I thought it was a bit odd how they dismissed the amount of wildlife killed by the cats :/

Hope they repeat the study elsewhere and share the papers that come out of it!
