Feline DNA Testing

DNA Testing by Wisdom Panel

Feline DNA Genetic Testing

We feel it is vital to do significant testing on a cat when we consider them for inclusion as part of our breeding program. 

This includes not only testing for communicable diseases such as FELV and FIV.  In addition, any Persian cat we consider for our breeding program must also undergo DNA testing.  There are a few genetic testing labs such as UC Davis, Basepaws, Orivet, and Wisdom Panel.

We have chosen Wisdom Panel as our DNA testing service provider. The test is performed by a cheek swab and sent into their lab. This is the least invasive option for DNA testing for a cat with the least amount of stress.

Wisdom Panel testing offers great insight into the overall genetics of a cat.

With DNA testing, we know the blood type of our cats, the fact that they are negative for polycystic kidney disease (PKD), negative for progressive retinal atrophy (PRA), as well as many other genetic traits.

Wisdom Panel’s Optimal Selection Feline is breed-focused and backed by science to screen for health, traits, blood type, and genetic diversity.  They’ve taken the latest scientific research on cat population genetics and developed a simple and easy at–home swab test for the modern breeder to manage cats’ health. Genome-wide testing panel provides advantages over traditional techniques such as pedigree analysis which helps breeders develop proactive, sustainable breeding programs for themselves and their wider breed. Our veterinarian recommends Wisdom Panel. The test includes:

  • Results for over 40 genetic diseases, with breed relevance noted in reports
  • Testing for 20+ traits including coat colors, coat types, and body shape
  • Comprehensive blood typing
  • Genetic diversity information
  • Continuously updated research and breed information based on discoveries

Optimal Selection™ DNA service for cats is a genome-wide genetic analysis that gives information on several inherited characteristics.
