hello everyone I have two beautiful cats! My black cats name is Sprinkle and my Grey cat is Bunny my vet thinks I got really lucky and got a Bombay cat and a Korat cat, she really wanted me to get DNA test done bc she was really curious. However they don’t offer that in their clinic. I have been looking for a few days now and was just wondering what was a good place to go through to determine their breed!

There’s a company called BasePaws that’s doing DNA testing for cats now. We were discussing this here: Basepaws Dna Test For Cats?

They’re fairly new, and probably getting swamped with orders, so none of our TCS members have gotten results back yet.

Another option is to go through UC Davis. Like BasePaws, they provide a test kit so you don’t physically have to go there.

If you post pictures of your cats, we can help you determine if your cats do have the look of those breeds.
