Well, in our school, we did a survey of the whole school of the people who had cats and wether their female or male and it seemed that the female cat, produces more of the male gender then the female gender, and cat owners prefer male cats since their more outgoing and cuddly, while the female is more conservative and keeps to herself. So ,our result was 3/5 of the cat population is male, ironic huh, since the female cat is the only one that produces :) AHAHA
