Is your cat a Western Maine Coon? An Eastern Burmese? Or a perfectly adorable polycat? Using our world-class database of feline genetics, Basepaws can estimate your tabby’s origins to more than 21 top breed types and four breed regions. Your cat’s DNA will be able to say so many of the things they can’t. Using the latest science we can show if your cat has any health risks in their genes. We have manually curated health markers for every sample we have sequenced and can recognize 40+ markers representing 16 genetic diseases including: Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD), Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), Retinal degeneration, and more. You’ll find out if your cat is a Tiger, Cheetah, or maybe even a Lion when we compare your cat’s DNA with the 37 common cat species. It may explain your kitten’s roar-like meow. When you join Basepaws, you are joining a community that is constantly evolving. Our database grows larger on a daily basis, so when we have updates for your cat’s report, we send you updates. Review: On February 10 we had to let one of our cats peacefully move on due to a saddle thrombus. She had hypertrophic cardiomyopathy which apparently is almost impossible to detect until the saddle thrombus forms. And once there's a saddle thrombus, there's almost no chance of survival. Hypertropic cardiomyopathy is caused by a genetic defect that Basepaws checks for. Completely broken hearted, my husband and I never wanted to go through the experience of losing a cat due to an undetected disease again. This is where Basepaws comes in. We ordered 2 Basepaw kits and 2 Wisdom Panel kits. We have received the results of one of the Wisdom Panel kits (still waiting on the second), and we received the results of both Basepaw kits today. I am confident the results are reliable for a few reasons. The first is that the results of the Basepaws test was the same as the results from the one Wisdom Panel test we've received. The second reason why I think Basepaws is reliable is because my cats went to their regular vet for their annual exam and we discovered one of them really needs a teeth cleaning, and then other one has good teeth. Their Basepaws results reflected this as well. I didn't care so much about the ancestry part. While both of my cats are siamese cats, the only indication of that was their results said their coat is likely a siamese pattern. The rest of the ancestry was very non-specific. I'm not sure this is the right product if you're looking to learn about your cat's breed. I 100% recommend if you want to know if your kitty is at risk for health problems. I appreciate Basepaws for giving me some peace of mind. Review: This DNA kit was so fun and the instructions were really easy to follow. The cats didn’t want to follow the instructions too much, but I’d researched other test kits and this one seemed the easiest to do. My cat usually needs 3-4 people just to give her annual vaccines, but we managed to collect her sample with just two of us. The results do take a while to come back and it’s not the cheapest item, but getting the results back was so fun and definitely worth it. Plus, you’re helping contribute to cat research! ## Features - Easy-to-use at-home kit via saliva swab sample. Personalized results based on your cat's DNA ready in 6-9 weeks. - The world's first at-home feline genetic test to help you learn more about your cat's breed and wildcat breakdowns. Health and traits reports coming soon! Please note -- this is NOT a breed identifier (we can not confirm your cats pedigree) but we CAN tell you what breeds make up your cat and look for genomic similarities to existing breeds. - Cats breed groups are broken down into 4 categories: Western breeds (from Europe/Americas), Eastern Breeds (from Asia), Hybrid breeds (from Wild Cat crosses), and Polycat (of yet unknown origin), and expanded into individual breeds. The report now also contains a chromosome painting (also known as chromosome mapping), so you can see which specific sections of your cat's chromosomes match with the different breeds and categories! - Accurate, reliable reports developed + designed through a rigorous process by world-class scientists and veterinary experts. Although Basepaws is NOT a breed test, we use the most accurate breed identification scientifically possible to come to a Breed Index, showing which breeds make up your cat. Most other genetic tests only screen for "what is already known." Unfortunately, very little is currently known about cat genetics. We report on all currently available data + work on new discoveries! - Celebrate the Mutt - Mixed breeds cats, or polycats, are a lot more unique than we think! There is a big world beyond just Domestic Short Hair.

You will not need to re-purchase or re-test. **Q: I swabbed my cat just after he passed . Can I use these swabs?** A: Yes, we have worked with such samples and will try to get DNA from that swab, but timing is very important. Please send us an email ASAP to meow@basepaws.com for more instructions on how to store/send that swab to our laboratory. We are very sorry for your loss :( **Q: I don't understand the wildcat portion. housecats are descendants of an african wildcat, occasionally crossed with other small cats. where do come in?** A: While we know that our domestic housecats aren't directly descended from some of the classic wildcats like tigers and cheetahs, this is a fun comparison that is similar to when we put our human handprints compared to those of all other primates. In our database, some cats are indeed closer in various phenotypes to some wildcats than others! **Q: What machine are you using for sequencing and what polymerase are you using?** A: Basepaws uses Illumina sequencing and ligation-based library prep for breed comparison and amplitaq gold for health marker identification. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by F***4 on 30 March 2023* On February 10 we had to let one of our cats peacefully move on due to a saddle thrombus.

On a whim, I ordered these tests and they came quickly, were easy to use and I got results back quickly. It is interesting to see the characteristic traits of each kitten. They pretty much match their personalities. Even though they are from the same litter, they are VERY DIFFERENT kittens. Very impressed with Basepaws. ## Frequently Bought Together - Basepaws Cat DNA Test Kit 2 Pack- Comprehensive Breed, Health and Dental Analysis Across 114 Traits for Accurate and Easy-to-Use Genetic Insights - Wisdom Health Panel Essential Dog DNA Kit: Most Accurate Test for 365+ Breeds, 30 Genetic Health Conditions, 50+ Traits, Relatives, Ancestry - 1 Pack - Wisdom Panel Complete: Comprehensive Cat DNA Test kit for 45 Health Genetic Health Conditions, 70+ Breeds and populations, 25+ Traits, Blood Type - 1 Pack --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/519355757-basepaws-cat-dna-test-kit-2-pack-comprehensive-breed-health](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/519355757-basepaws-cat-dna-test-kit-2-pack-comprehensive-breed-health) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-05-08*
