RC-INT-AP DERMATO-MAF-210x275-1.indd 1 13/02/2018 11:17 Editorial VARIETY IS THE SPICE OF LIFE “When a man is tired of London, he is tired of life” So said Samuel Johnson, the renowned 18th century essayist, moralist and critic, a man who appreciated diversity and believed that the city offered almost unlimited opportunities for novel entertainment, stimulating dialogue and motivating challenges. He was essentially expressing the idea that everyone likes variety, and he was surely right. We would all concur with the sentiment that variety is the spice of life, and things would be very boring if we were all the same. And so it is with our pets – some people like the long ears of a Bassett, others are drawn to the prick ears of a Corgi; some admire the sleek coat of a Siamese, whilst others prefer the long hair of a Norwegian or the distinctive markings of an Egyptian Mau. And as every veterinarian knows, when breeding for certain features – whether that is ear shape, coat color or facial contours – it is possible to inadvertently introduce unwanted characteristics at the same time. But keeping up with the diversity of breed problems can be a challenge in itself. Dr. Johnson also said “Knowledge is of two kinds. We know a subject ourselves, or we know where we can find information upon it” and Veterinary Focus offers clinicians the latter, addressing as it does some of the breed-related issues that are to be found in our patients today.

  • 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.

    Contacts: Gregory Creasey (615) 807-4239 [email protected] MARS PETCARE OPENS FIRST INNOVATION CENTER IN THE UNITED STATES New $110 Million Gold LEED-Certified Campus Will Serve As Global Center of Excellence for Dry Cat and Dog Food THOMPSON’S STATION, TENN. (October 1, 2014) – Today Mars Petcare officially opened the doors of its new, state-of-the-art, Gold-LEED certified $110 million Global Innovation Center in Thompson’s Station, Tenn. The new campus, designed to help the company Make a Better World for Pets™ through pet food innovations, is the third Mars Petcare innovation center and first in the United States. It will serve as the global center of excellence for the company’s portfolio, which includes five billion dollar brands: PEDIGREE®, WHISKAS®, ROYAL CANIN®, BANFIELD® and IAMS®. The new center joins forces with similar Mars Petcare Global Innovation Centers located in Verden, Germany and Aimargues, France, and will focus on dry cat and dog food in both the natural and mainstream pet food categories. “Everything about this campus is dedicated to helping pets live longer and happier lives,” said Larry Allgaier, president of Mars Petcare North America. “Mars has been doing business in Tennessee for the past 35 years, employing nearly 1,700 Associates across our Petcare, Chocolate and Wrigley business segments. Our $110 million Global Innovation Center marks the sixth Mars site in Tennessee and will employ more than 140 Associates.” The location in Thompson’s Station was selected in part because of a great working relationship with the state of Tennessee, which is already home to Mars facilities in Cleveland, Chattanooga, Lebanon and Franklin (two locations).

  • Jacksonville's Gardner Minshew Voted Snickers
    JACKSONVILLE’S GARDNER MINSHEW VOTED SNICKERS® ‘HUNGRIEST PLAYER OF THE YEAR’ Quarterback Edges Out 12 Players with Exceptional On- and Off-Field Performance This Season HACKETTSTOWN, NJ, January 28, 2020 – Today, ahead of Super Bowl LIV, SNICKERS® announced Gardner Minshew as the brand’s ‘Hungriest Player of the Year.’ The ‘Hungriest Player’ program spanned 13 weeks of the National Football League’s (NFL’s) 100th season, and rewarded players who showed hunger for more on and off the field. Each week, a different player was passed a jewel-encrusted chain featuring the iconic “S” SNICKERS logo as a testament to their exceptional performance. Minshew was awarded the chain during the fourth week of the regular season after leading his team to a fourth-quarter comeback win. Minshew edged out 12 other chain recipients after SNICKERS fans were invited to weigh in with their vote for which ‘Hungriest Player’ rose above the rest. As a rookie quarterback, he has already begun to make a name for himself, generating the highest passer rating (91.2) among all nine rookie quarterbacks who started at least one game this season, and leading Jacksonville in all six of their wins. His charitable record with men’s health charity, Movember provided all the more reason to award him the chain. “Throughout the season, SNICKERS awarded the chain to players who demonstrated their hunger for more with a huge game or play on the field,” said Josh Olken, Brand Director, SNICKERS. “As we watched Gardner Minshew embody this spirit throughout the season, we agree with our fans and can’t think of anyone more fitting to be named as the Hungriest Player of the Year.” As the ‘Hungriest Player of the Year,’ Minshew was awarded the one-of-a-kind SNICKERS chain that is valued at over $75,000.
