Cat Genetic Disease Testing. Dna is very stable and only a very small amount is needed. I will start with a basic introduction to genetic testing.

Feline polycystic kidney disease (pkd1) is a heritable form of polycystic kidney disease commonly seen in persians and cats with persian ancestry. Although genetic testing isn’t a fully surefire way to confirm whether your cat is a ragdoll, it can get you pretty close. The disease is genetic and also hereditary.
Swabs from the inside lip/cheek of a cat are easily obtained with a cytology brush and provide enough sample for multiple tests.
However, it does a test for the presence of biological species that exist and causes disease in a cat or other animal. Cat genetics describes the study of inheritance as it occurs in domestic cats. We are not accepting dna/genetic test results at this time; Hemophilia is a group or rare hereditary bleeding disorders in which the cat’s blood doesn’t clot appropriately in case of an injury.
