Neogen, Cat Fanciers’ Association Collaborate to Advance Feline DNA Testing
Neogen Corporation is collaborating with the Cat Fanciers’ Association (CFA), a leading authority in feline advocacy.
The relationship centers around Neogen’s My CatScan DNA testing services, with the aim of advancing the genomic products available to CFA members through marketing, education and promotion of Neogen technology and products.
“We are excited about this relationship with the Cat Fanciers’ Association,” said Dr. Robert Westra, Associate Medical Director at Neogen. “This strategic collaboration will not only advance feline DNA testing but also strengthen the bond between Neogen and the feline community. Both Neogen and CFA look forward to a successful collaboration, driving innovation and awareness in the field of feline genetics.”
“Preservation breeding is about careful selection based on ancestry and, most importantly, health and genetic traits,” said Desiree Bobby of CFA. “Neogen’s My CatScan product screens for more than 120 feline health risks and genetic traits and provides data that our breeders need to meticulously shape new generations of pedigreed cats.”
The Cat Fanciers’ Association, Inc., a not-for-profit association of member clubs and the world’s most influential registry of pedigreed cats, has been preserving, celebrating and protecting cats since 1906. CFA’s mission is to preserve and promote the pedigreed breeds of cats and to enhance the well-being of all cats. CFA promotes education, responsible cat ownership and proper care to the owners of millions of cats worldwide.
