Powered by Wisdom Panel™, MyCatDNA™ provides breeders with the most comprehensive test of its kind. We’ve taken the latest scientific research on cat population genetics and developed a simple and easy at–home swab test that screens for multiple diseases and traits while also evaluating genetic diversity. This kind of testing can provide advantages over traditional techniques such as pedigree analysis and help breeders to develop proactive, sustainable breeding programs.

• Results for over 40 genetic diseases, reported in terms of known relevance to the specific breed evaluated.
• Testing for 20+ traits including coat colors, coat types, and morphology.
• Testing for blood type
• Genetic diversity information for the tested cat, and the overall breed population
• Continuously updated research and breed information based on new discoveries

MyCatDNA™ DNA service for cats is a genome-wide genetic analysis that gives information on several inherited characteristics. All received DNA test results are reported online to your user account in the secured MyCatDNA™ database.
