  • Pet Cats & Human Health Things to Think About Before Getting a Cat
    For Pet \ Owners Pet Cats & Human Health As of 2000, it was estimated that there were approximately 4.5 million domestic cats in Canadian homes. Many cat owners live in very close contact with their feline companions. It is common for house cats to have access to areas like the kitchen counter where food is prepared, and many cats sleep in the same bed as their owners. Given the high frequency of very close contact between cats and people, it is easy to see how infection could be transmitted between them. Although the risk of zoonotic disease transmission from cats is very low, it is important to be aware that it exists, and to take some simple precautions to reduce this risk. Things to Think About Before Getting a Cat Your veterinarian is a great source of information and advice about the time and financial commitments involved in owning a cat what kind of cat would be best suited for you and from where you should get one. In order to decrease the risk of your cat becoming sick and/or transmitting infection to a person, it is recommended that the cat should be: Well socialized and accustomed to handling: this will make the cat less likely to bite or scratch a person. Examined regularly by a veterinarian: in order to assess the overall health of the cat, check for external and internal parasites, and clip the cat’s claws. Declawing the cat is NOT necessary. Spayed/neutered: this will help to decrease fighting with other cats and the tendency to roam, as well as the tendency for male cats to urine mark, and it eliminates the possibility of pregnancy in female cats.

  • Origin of the Egyptian Domestic Cat
    UPTEC X 12 012 Examensarbete 30 hp Juni 2012 Origin of the Egyptian Domestic Cat Carolin Johansson Molecular Biotechnology Programme Uppsala University School of Engineering UPTEC X 12 012 Date of issue 2012-06 Author Carolin Johansson Title (English) Origin of the Egyptian Domestic Cat Title (Swedish) Abstract This study presents mitochondrial genome sequences from 22 Egyptian house cats with the aim of resolving the uncertain origin of the contemporary world-wide population of Domestic cats. Together with data from earlier studies it has been possible to confirm some of the previously suggested haplotype identifications and phylogeny of the Domestic cat lineage. Moreover, by applying a molecular clock, it is proposed that the Domestic cat lineage has experienced several expansions representing domestication and/or breeding in pre-historical and historical times, seemingly in concordance with theories of a domestication origin in the Neolithic Middle East and in Pharaonic Egypt. In addition, the present study also demonstrates the possibility of retrieving long polynucleotide sequences from hair shafts and a time-efficient way to amplify a complete feline mitochondrial genome.

The next phases of design and construction, as well as ongoing operation, will remain fully 100% funded by charitable donations. The PHS/SPCA animal sanctuary will provide a refuge for behaviorally challenged and medically fragile cats and dogs in a secure environment where they can live a happy and satisfying life. The animal sanctuary is poised to also provide housing and care for rabbits and farm animals that otherwise would have no place to go. “As an open admission shelter, many animals come to us with serious health and behavior problems,” said White. “We’ve built very robust veterinary and behavior teams and, through our Tom and Annette Lantos Center for Compassion Coyote Point Shelter ADOPTIONS | EDUCATION | WILDLIFE | ADMINISTRATION LOST/FOUND | ANIMAL INTAKE | SPAY/NEUTER CLINIC | ANIMAL CONTROL Tom and Annette Lantos Center for Compassion 1450 Rollins Road, Burlingame, CA 94010-2307 650-340-7022 • 650-685-8428 fax • www.PHS-SPCA.org Hope Program, we treat and then find homes for many of those special needs dogs, cats and other animals.
