Study shows cat people tend to be more academic
By Kat • Mar 17th, 2010 • Category: Articles, Opinions and EditorialsThough the cats versus dogs debate has been waged for centuries, scientists in the UK suggest that your choice in pet may indicate a lot about who you are as a person.
A study, which was conducted at Bristol University and published in the Veterinary Record, revealed that 47 percent of households with a cat had a resident with a college education, while only 38 percent of homes with dogs had a degree holder.
Jane Murray, who led the study, suggested that the disparity could be a result of the fact that those who have a college diploma are more likely to work long hours.
So why do academics prefer feline friends? “It is unlikely to be related to household income. . . but it could be related to household members with longer working hours having less time available to care for a dog,” said Muray.
In addition, the information collected found that women under the age of 65 were most likely to own a pet, while dogs are more commonly owned by those who live in rural areas or have access to a garden.
—Kat note— DUH!
I suggest reading a few articles and research on Toxoplasmosis latent infections
(40% of the world by some estimates)& some of the treatments: collodial silver, omega fats, B-vitamins; IT is associated with hospitalized schizophrenics and
old eccentrics with 20cats LOL ? (Imagine how many billions of dollars this information could cost the drug companies & psychologists, perhaps that is why they will not test for it? My impression is it acts like syphilis and over years of cysts in the brain results in mental problems & or dementia )
