Cat personality and predation survey

Dataset for the article "Pet cat personality linked to owner-reported predation frequency " https://doi.org/10.1002/ece3.9651 It contains survey data of French cats owners. We surveyed a large sample of cat owners living in France and estimated the personality traits of their cats using the Feline Five personality model of Litchfield et al. (2017) as well as the frequency of birds and mammals returned home by the cats as reported by their owners. To control for potential confounding factors, we also included questions about variables previously shown to influence pet cat predation: type of environment around the home, time spent outdoors, individual characteristics, and breed.
