Some Extended Forms
These extended suffixed forms show the use of the buffer -n- which is always used with the demonstrative.

Extended Forms of the Demonstrative Pronouns

Note that the suffix -ca - concerning .. - is used with the Demonstrative Pronoun to produce - bunca - all this, bunlarca - all these, onca - all that, onlarca - all those.

Note also that although - şunca - or - şunlarca - are not normally in use - however - it is sometimes used dispargingly. However, in Turkish it could be used to despise something in quantity or magnitude , or someone in muscular power.
For instance, if someone has a small wound due to some reason and complaining too much about it then you could say - şunca/şuncacik, yaradan ölmezsin - You won't die from such a small wound (surely not..!.)

Thanks to Onur Üstünel for the notes above. - Jan 2007
bunca and onca are plural and they take a singular object.
bunca kedi, onca kedi
Or we can use:
Bu kediler , o kediler.
