TRU researcher investigating impact of outside cats
KAMLOOPS — There’s no denying people are passionate about their pets, but how many pet owners take the time to consider the impact their pets have on the environment, or what impact that environment can have on their pet? One TRU researcher is considering that question and asking for input from the Kamloops community to help her in that research.
Denise King is a cat person, and it’s that love for her feline friend that guided her into her current Master’s research project at Thompson Rivers University.
“Well, it started with my love for cats,” King said in an interview on campus Tuesday. “I’ve always loved them, and you always want to start your research with a passion, and then you lead it to a question.”
