9. Cat behaviour
Generally refers to the behaviours and habits of domestic
cats, including body language and communication. Cat
behaviour may vary among breeds and individual cats. Many
common behaviours include hunting techniques and
reactions to certain events as well as interactions with
humans and other animals, such as dogs. Communication can
vary greatly depending on a cat's temperament. In a family
with multiple cats, social position can also affect behaviour
patterns with others. A cat's eating patterns can also vary
depending on the owner's choice of food or eating times/
quantities. In the case of a family having two or more cats,
one cat may become dominant over the other.

27. present a don’t read;
clear message tell a story
practice,
be concise; practice,
less is more &
practice
some more!
be interactive;
use visual aids
establish eye contact
keep to time have fun!
convey a clear message - this needs rehearsing if you are new to presenting \nstart with a topic sentence and a couple of sentences to support your statement\n
keep it short and simple. Less is more. \nPeople’s attention spam at a conference is short. They are being fed with information for hours on end. \n
fewer slides helps you with the time keeping.\nStill, if you have 15 minutes, plan for 10! It is extremely rude to exceed your time especially when you are not the only one presenting in your session. If your talk less than the 15minutes, you will have more time for interaction with the audience. That’s a good thing.\nWriting and rehearsing your presentation \n
Pictures appeals to the eye. it is far more interesting than text. Besides people came to listen to your talk not to read your paper. They can do that when they go back home!\n\nPlus avoid to much text on the slides as the tendency will be to read from them if you are too nervous. If the text isn’t there, you will not run that risk! \nthe next 3 slides illustrate this point \n

Writing helps you organise your thoughts and make your speech clearer.\nUse a notepad or cards and write your talk - one notepad page/ card side for each slide. It helps you refine your speech. \n\n
Use the note pad notes to practice. Practice in from of your family and friends, use the mirror, etc \n
a very common mistake is that people look at their own slides and point at them instead of looking at people. you know your slides by heart by now - look at your audience. if you need to catch a glimpse of your slides, look at the computer screen, not at the wall where they are being projected. Turning your back to the conference audience is rude!\n
