The Animal Behavior Clinic at the Tufts Cummings School of Veterinary Medicine is searching for Birman or Siamese cat owners to participate in a study. We are examining a possible genetic link to wool sucking behavior in these two breeds of cats. Both affected and normal purebred cats are needed. Owners will receive a survey and at-home DNA sampling kit to obtain their cat's DNA. No veterinary visit is required. Participation is free and affected cats will receive a complementary guide to behavior modification.
If you own a purebred Birman or Siamese and are interested in participating, please complete the following qualification survey: http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/XZHLY3H
