Yesterday we got the results of Bruno´s DNA-tests, and we are very happy with them! Bruno has been tested for PRA and if he´s a carrier of dilute and chocolate. And the results shows that he is neither PRA homozygote or PRA heterozygote    His breeder are very happy of this result also, she has been a bit nervous   And I can easily understand her, I have been there too regarding the offsprings from our cats. In addition to this super result, the tests also confirms that Bruno is carrying dilution and chocolate   And that means that Faffa and he has a possibility to have both chocolate, lilac and BLUE pointed offsprings   I just love bluepointed and blue cats!

After testing most of our cats (it is just little Against All Odds that needs to be tested) we have super results! Of 7 tested cats none of them has either the homozygote or the heterozygote PRA-gene! And the statistics for tested oriental cats shows that approx. 40% of this population are either homozygote or heterozygote for PRA. If the results in our cattery was following the same pattern, 3 of our cats should have been either homozygote or heterozygote for PRA. But Lady Luck was in our corner this time   And now we hope for little Against All Odds to follow the same  path  

He is a big boy now, almost 540 grams today (at the age of almost 4 weeks). Yesterday he started to climb on the climbing post, and this morning he jumped down to the floor when Finn-Ove sat down to cuddle. The little one is growing fast and he has developed nicely. Now we will try to teach him to eat some food and not only succle on his mum. He also need to learn how to use the litterbox.  But this will come in due time.

  Our lovely little Kinderegg - he meets our 3 wishes - now it´s time to find some new ones for him

Today I got a sms from my vet`s and I was sure it had to do with the tests from Løven and Puma. They have been tested for TF, after being treated for a third time. I didn`t dare to see what the message said, I wouldn`t read that they still was positi...
