On the basis of internet survey and using specially structured questionnaire for owners authors obtained data concerning assessment of behaviour of 161 domestic pure breed and mixed breed cats. Working on this data various statistical procedures were applied with Principal Component Analysis (PCA) as a chief method to extract personality dimensions in domestic cat. Authors obtained five dimensions of cat personality: openness, quietness, affiliation, activity and anthro-affiliation. The distinction between affiliation (in cat group context) and anthro-affiliation (in relation between cat and man) was firstly revealed in this study. The data also showed that some specific factors (age, duration of play with caretaker) have effect on cat personality. The comparison of personality of pure breeds and mixed breed cats referred rather to vocal communication than to its affiliation with human being (anthro-affiliation). Results of this study yielded by authors may be applied in shelters procedure of cat adoption.
