Cat ancestry test traces lineage of your feline

A new genetic test may have pet owners asking, "Who's your cat daddy?"

The Feline Genetics Laboratory at UC Davis has created an ancestry test for cats. The test costs $120 and requires you to send in a cheek swab of your cat. Results are back within 10 to 15 days.

Researchers promise the test will determine which of the eight major cat racial groups your feline belongs to, as well as which of 29 breeds.

You can order the test online through the UC Davis Veterinary Medicine website.
