This page contains health information on queens currently being used in my program.
I am currently DNA testing my Bengal cats for many diseases. DNA testing gives a 100% guarantee that the cat will not develop the diseases if the result shows "CLEAR". If the cat result says "CARRIER", this means that is carries one copy of the disease. In some cases, one copy will cause the disease and in other cases two copies of the gene are required for the cat to develop a disease.
My Bengals are DNA tested for:
Blood Type and Coat Color
Coat type- Shows the cat doesn't carry for longhair
Blood disorders- 3 kinds
Cardiac disorders- 2 types
Endocrine disorders- 1 kind
Immunologic disorders- 2 kinds
Metabolic disorders- 16 different kinds
Muscular disorders- 4 kinds
Neurologic disorders-6 kinds
Neuromuscular disorders-1 kind
Pharmacogenetics- 1 kind
Renal disorders- 2 kinds
