where did the name 8 out of 10 cats come from
8 Out of 10 Cats The show is based on statistics and opinion polls, and draws on polls produced by a variety of organisations and new polls commissioned for the programme, carried out by Harris Poll. The title is derived from a well-known advertising tagline for Whiskas cat food, which claimed that "8 out of 10 cats prefer Whiskas".[1]
Cats in Australia Historical records date the introduction of cats to Australia at around 1804 and that cats first became feral around Sydney by 1820.[1] In the early 1900s, concern was expressed at the pervasiveness of the cat problem [2]
