Knowing as much as possible about your cat helps you to care for them to the best of your ability. Some breeds of pets are genetically more susceptible to health risks than others, and knowing what health issues your pet may be predisposed to means you can more easily prevent problems and take care of them if they do arise.
Right now, the Basepaws Breed + Health DNA Test: At-Home Cat Genetics Test is on sale at a 12% discount, reduced to $129.99 from the full purchase price of $149.

Using this pet DNA kit means you’re armed with as much information as possible, and allows you to know in advance whether your pet’s future might be affected by genetic health issues or behaviors.

The at-home kit is easy to use: Create an account at basepaws.com, gently collect a cheek swab from your cat, send the sample back to Basepaws, and your cat’s results will arrive in four to six weeks after the sample’s arrival at the lab.
