BasepawsLos Angeles-based Basepaws is a pet genetics company that has developed the first consumer genetics test for cats. Basepaws offers three different types of tests that cover numerous components for your cat's health and ancestry. Owners can collect a sample at home, send it via USPS, and the company provides free two-way shipping. Basepaws tests go beyond breed by screening for hundreds of genetic markers associated with a pet's risk for disease, allowing pet parents to get peace of mind regarding their cat's health. Basepaws was recently acquired by animal health leader Zoetis, to expand and innovate feline research and development.
