Breed + Health DNA Test
Description
All types of cats develop from common ancestors. There are 37 known species of cats, and they all have some common genes similar to their ancestors. Studies have shown that traces of those common ancestors are still present in your cat's genetic makeup.
Different breeds of cats are found to have inherited much of their DNA from one defined ancestral bobcat than from another. To determine which ancestral parent your cat is related to using this Basepaw DNA Test Kit, your furry companion will be compared to the famous wild cat, namely leopards, tigers, cougars, and cheetahs.
This test will also check for 38 or more genetic mutations that can cause different genetic problems. This test will help you predict what problem may occur to your cat in the future.
