> While dogs are promiscuous with their affection, cats tend to show affection for a particular person more than others. Cats have actually been found to be promiscuous in a different way: In a Horizon documentary a few years ago, "The Secret Life of Cats" [1], researchers tagged cats and followed their territorial habits, and they found that cats spend a sizeable amount of time with other families. In other words, while cats may have a home they consider their base, they're not exclusive. It's a good documentary, featuring real researchers, which made some surprising discoveries about cat habits. In particular, the sheer number of kills is fairly astounding, with some cats averaging 7-8 (if I remember correctly) or more kills a night, including birds.
