References & acknowledgements 14 Breed Origins & History In the west the Korat takes its name from a northern area of Thailand, a remote location near the Burmese border. It’s believed blue cats may have had the evolutionary edge there as the coat colour blended with the granite rock. In its homeland it’s most usually called the Si-Sawat, though there are also the older names of Doklao and Maled. These derive from the poetic imagery of the Tamra Maew, Thailand’s treasured ‘Book of Cats’ now to be seen as the Smud Khoi of Cats in the National Museum of Bangkok. The Korat drawing and verse as it appears on the ancient manuscript (Smud Khoi) Naturally enough, it is how the cat looks (phenotype) that is described with the body colour being likened to a seed head, lemon grass flower, clouds and sea foam, but they are important as they are the reason for the Korat’s modern Thai name of Si-Sawat (grey cat - where si is colour and sawat a mingling of grey and light green).

  • Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD)
    Polycystic Kidney Disease About the disease Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (AD-PKD) is a problem in Persian cats and related breeds, especially Chinchillas, Exotics and British Shorthairs. The Molecular Diagnostic Unit has been oFFering a genetic test to diagnose autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (AD-PKD) in cats since April 2005 About the test This genetic test is a PCR-based pyrosequencing assay and evaluations oF the test have shown excellent agreement with the results oF ultrasound screening. The test has revolutionised testing For AD-PKD. Until recently specialist ultrasound scanning was been required For diagnosis, but the identiFication oF a speciFic genetic mutation associated with Feline AD-PKD means that PCR can now be used to identiFy AFFected cats. Cats screened using our genetic test and Found to be negative For the PKD mutation can be listed on the ICC PKD negative register. The Following graph shows the percentage oF PKD AFFected cats detected by the Molecular Diagnostic Unit between 2005 and 2018. This clearly shows a decline in the percentage oF cats testing positive For the AD-PKD genetic mutation, which is likely due to AD-PKD screening and selective breeding. Polycystic Kidney Disease Interpretation of results A Normal AD-PKD genetic test result means that the cat does not have the respective genetic mutation. An Affected AD-PKD genetic test result means that the cat has one normal and one mutant copy oF the PKD1 gene. Presence oF the mutant PKD1 gene has been strongly associated with polycystic kidney disease. Each certiFicate we issue will speciFy whether the cat is Normal or AfFected For the PKD1 mutation.

  • Tyrosinase Mutations Associated with Siamese and Burmese Patterns in the Domestic Cat (Felis Catus)
    doi:10.1111/j.1365-2052.2005.01253.x Tyrosinase mutations associated with Siamese and Burmese patterns in the domestic cat (Felis catus) L. A. Lyons, D. L. Imes, H. C. Rah and R. A. Grahn Department of Population Health and Reproduction, School of Veterinary Medicine, University of California, Davis, Davis, CA, USA Summary The Siamese cat has a highly recognized coat colour phenotype that expresses pigment at the extremities of the body, such as the ears, tail and paws. This temperature-sensitive colouration causes a ÔmaskÕ on the face and the phenotype is commonly referred to as ÔpointedÕ. Burmese is an allelic variant that is less temperature-sensitive, producing more pigment throughout the torso than Siamese. Tyrosinase (TYR) mutations have been sus- pected to cause these phenotypes because mutations in TYR are associated with similar phenotypes in other species. Linkage and synteny mapping in the cat has indirectly sup- ported TYR as the causative gene for these feline phenotypes. TYR mutations associated with Siamese and Burmese phenotypes are described herein. Over 200 cats were analysed, representing 12 breeds as well as randomly bred cats. The SNP associated with the Siamese phenotype is an exon 2 G > A transition changing glycine to arginine (G302R). The SNP associated with the Burmese phenotype is an exon 1 G > T transversion changing glycine to tryptophan (G227W). The G302R mutation segregated concordantly within a pedigree of Himalayan (pointed) Persians. All cats that had ÔpointedÕ or the Burmese coat colour phenotype were homozygous for the corresponding mutations, respectively, suggesting that these phenotypes are a result of the identified mutations or unidentified mutations that are in linkage disequilibrium.

  • Myelopathy—Paresis and Paralysis in Cats
    Myelopathy—Paresis and Paralysis in Cats (Disorder of the Spinal Cord Leading to Weakness and Paralysis in Cats) Basics OVERVIEW • “Myelopathy”—any disorder or disease affecting the spinal cord; a myelopathy can cause weakness or partial paralysis (known as “paresis”) or complete loss of voluntary movements (known as “paralysis”) • Paresis or paralysis may affect all four limbs (known as “tetraparesis” or “tetraplegia,” respectively), may affect only the rear legs (known as “paraparesis” or “paraplegia,” respectively), the front and rear leg on the same side (known as “hemiparesis” or “hemiplegia,” respectively) or only one limb (known as “monoparesis” or “monoplegia,” respectively) • Paresis and paralysis also can be caused by disorders of the nerves and/or muscles to the legs (known as “peripheral neuromuscular disorders”) • The spine is composed of multiple bones with disks (intervertebral disks) located in between adjacent bones (vertebrae); the disks act as shock absorbers and allow movement of the spine; the vertebrae are named according to their location—cervical vertebrae are located in the neck and are numbered as cervical vertebrae one through seven or C1–C7; thoracic vertebrae are located from the area of the shoulders to the end of the ribs and are numbered as thoracic vertebrae one through thirteen or T1–T13; lumbar vertebrae start at the end of the ribs and continue to the pelvis and are numbered as lumbar vertebrae one through seven or L1–L7; the remaining vertebrae are the sacral and coccygeal (tail) vertebrae • The brain

  • 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.

  • Pet Care Tips for Cats
    Pet Care Tips for cats What you’ll need to know to keep your companion feline happy and healthy . Backgroun d Cats were domesticated sometime between 4,000 and 8,000 years ago, in Africa and the Middle East. Small wild cats started hanging out where humans stored their grain. When humans saw cats up close and personal, they began to admire felines for their beauty and grace. There are many different breeds of cats -- from the hairless Sphinx and the fluffy Persian to the silvery spotted Egyptian Mau . But the most popular felines of all are non-pedigree —that includes brown tabbies, black-and-orange tortoiseshells, all-black cats with long hair, striped cats with white socks and everything in between . Cost When you first get your cat, you’ll need to spend about $25 for a litter box, $10 for a collar, and $30 for a carrier. Food runs about $170 a year, plus $50 annually for toys and treats, $175 annually for litter and an average of $150 for veterinary care every year. Note: Make sure you have all your supplies (see our checklist) before you bring your new pet home. Basic Care Feeding - An adult cat should be fed one large or two or three smaller meals each day . - Kittens from 6 to 12 weeks must eat four times a day . - Kittens from three to six months need to be fed three times a day . You can either feed specific meals, throwing away any leftover canned food after 30 minutes, or keep dry food available at all times.

  • Printable Breed Introduction
    TICA Khaomanee Breed Introduction www.tica.org General Description: With one blue eye and one eye ranging from copper through yellow to green, this shining white cat from Thailand captures the imagination. Khaomanee (sometimes seen as Khao Manee) means White Gem and is thought to have been a favorite in the royal palaces. A heart- shaped face with high cheekbones and a brilliant white coat like diamonds belie the naughtiness of these stunning cats, but their devotion to you will have you admiring the naughtiness that these intelligent cats so enjoy as they entertain you with their antics. History: Several related breeds have their origins, ancient origins, in Thailand. The Siamese (Wichien-maat), the Burmese (Suphalak), the Korat (Dork Lao) and the Khaomanee. The first three breeds are well-established in the West but the Khaomanee has remained a well-kept secret in its native Thailand. Like the other breeds, we find references to the Khaomanee in the Tamra Maew (an ancient collection of Thai cat poems from 1350). Although in that text, it is called the Khao Plort. While the eyes were originally referred to as the color of mercury, the eye color was changed to reflect the odd-eyed cats that were considered lucky and also to have the yellow eyes like canary diamonds that breeders also favored. Interest in these striking cats has grown in the West, and in 1999, Colleen Freymouth imported the first Khaomanee, Sripia, from Thailand to the US. She also imported a male and bred the first Khaomanee litter in North America. Janet Poulsen (Odyssey cattery) exported the first Khaomanee to the UK, and interest in the breed is growing there, as breeders import more of these stunning cats from Thailand to continue developing the breed.
