There are several concerns on the possible negative effects on PPG including anaesthesia, surgery and complications. The aim of this study was to evaluate the safety of PPG. Microsoft excel was used for statistical analysis. The information about 6646 purebred kittens who had gone through PPG before 27 weeks of age was obtained from the online retrospective survey.

  • Reds, Creams and Inbetweens Dr Kerry Fowler Msc Phd Grad Dip Ed Published in NSW CFA Catching up 5(3/4):5-6(2003)
    Reds, Creams and Inbetweens Dr Kerry Fowler MSc PhD Grad Dip Ed Published in NSW CFA Catching Up 5(3/4):5-6(2003) Background Current registration systems in most Australian cat councils work on the concept that two solid cats cannot produce a tabby kitten. In the main this policy is absolutely correct however in the case of the orange or ‘O’ gene cats ie creams, reds and the less vibrant reds known as ‘gingers’ and ‘marmalades’, sticking to this hard and fast rule often results in no end of controversy and confusion. Breeders are obliged to register red or cream tabby marked kittens from solid parents as red or cream selfs and in turn judges are required to assess them as such despite some of these red or cream kittens and cats having an abundance of clear tabby markings. Being a sex-linked gene, the ‘O’ gene coat colour issues extend to tortoiseshells, blue-creams and tricolours. This article identifies some of the misunderstanding surrounding breeding and judging ‘O’ gene cats including cameos and apricots, and draws on current genetic knowledge, registration policies and show standards from other councils to help resolve some of the re-occurring questions. Genetic principles In order to help put some of the debate and perplexity aside it is worth keeping in mind that there are four basic genetic rules that help us to understand the appearance of red or cream tabbies and solids. First, the tabby pattern gene is present in all cats including solid or self cats. Second, the tabby pattern is only revealed when the dominant agouti gene product or protein is present.

Non- responders were re-mailed the questionnaire on two further occasions, two and four weeks after the first postings. Completed questionnaires were received from 884 households. No pets were kept by 387 (43.8%) respondents. Dogs and cats were owned by 295 (33.4%) and 198 (22.5%) of households, respectively, with 7.8% of households having both cat(s) and dog(s).

  • A Synopsis of Feline Infectious Peritonitis Virus Infection
    A synopsis of feline infectious peritonitis virus infection Niels C Pedersen, D.V.M., Ph.D., Center for Companion Animal Health, Room 213, CCAH Bldg., School of Veterinary Medicine, University of California, Davis, CA, 95616, USA. Tel:+1-530-752-7402, Fax:+1-752-7701; E-mail: [email protected] Introduction This synopsis is taken from a much larger and more scientifically comprehensive review of FIP literature from the period 1963 through 2008. Although more technical than the Q&A format review also provided on the SOCKFIP website, it should prove helpful to those people with the desire to obtain more in depth knowledge of this disease. It is also hoped that the inclusion of references will demonstrate the amount of actual peer-reviewed research that has been done on the disease and tol make readers aware of the actual state of FIP prevention, diagnosis and treatment. Readers will be also less apt to rely on the mass of anectdotal and frequently incorrect information on FIP that floods the web. Historical Feline infectious peritonitis (FIP) was first described as an “important disorder of cats” by Holzworth (1963) at the Angell Memorial Animal Hospital, Boston and a clinico-pathologic conference on this disorder from this same institution was published the following year (Feldman and Jortner, 1964). The disease was thought to be infectious but no specific etiologic agent was identified at the time. Wolfe and Griesemer (1966) were the first to propose that FIP was caused by a virus. Zook et al (1968) observed virus particles in the tissues of experimentally infected cats, but were unable to characterize the agent.
