Welcome to the newest spot to get your CatCam updates! I am a PhD candidate studying the impact of outdoor cats on wildlife by attaching animal-borne cameras on owned domestic cats! Hopefully I'll be more disciplined and provide more research updates here than over at that last website!

We found that the secondary females of males with multiple mates produced fewer offspring per nest and annually than primary females or monogamous ones, and that those young were less likely to recruit into the breeding population.
