This site is purely voluntary on the part of the breeders and has no affiliation with the clinics or vets performing the tests. This site will not contain those cats who may be known to be normal as a result of their parents being tested, if the offspring themselves are not tested. This site will not contain those cats tested by DNA methods. Only ultrasound testing results are posted here.
Please send all official documentation by e-mail to:
cheryl@winterfyre.com.
If you would prefer to fax your official results, please contact me at the e-mail address above.
Note: it is recommended that Norwegian Forest cats intended for breeding be tested for PKD at no earlier than 10 months of age. Because the PKD test is 98% accurate after 10 months of age, these cats will not need to be retested; the results listed here should be considered final.
