What breeders are saying
"I was skeptical about the feline nocturnal vocalization PGS, but our latest litter has been 40% quieter at 3am. My marriage is saved. Genuinely cannot overstate the ROI here."
Thornton Persians, Kent, UK
"The goldfish color vibrancy scores were within 0.2 standard deviations of observed phenotype at 8 months. I placed second at the All Japan Ranchu Championship. Next year, we optimize fin symmetry."
Competitive Ranchu Breeder, Osaka
"Our hamsters have never been rounder. The general roundness PGS captured something that generations of selective breeding only approximated. We are in a new era."
Institute for Small Mammal Excellence, Warsaw
"We selected for Majesty Quotient in our Friesian line and honestly went too far. Our latest foal enters the arena and three judges have involuntarily bowed. One cried. The horse knows what he's doing."
Royal Friesian Stud, Leeuwarden, Netherlands
Infrequently asked questions
Is this the same technology used in human IVF?
Yes. Our ImputePGTA pipeline and SBayesRC scoring engine are identical to those deployed in over 30 human fertility clinics. The only modification is the reference genome and training data. We believe companion animals deserve the same standard of genetic optimization currently available to humans.
How do you perform IVF on a goldfish?
Technically, we don't. Fish fertilization is external, which simplifies the process considerably. We collect egg clutches post-spawning, perform micro-aspiration of individual blastomeres at the 64-cell stage, and run low-pass whole genome sequencing. The real innovation was waterproofing the biopsy needle. Patent pending.
What is the "Squirrel Fixation Index" and why is it safety-critical?
The Squirrel Fixation Index (SFI) measures a dog's polygenic predisposition toward single-minded pursuit of Sciuridae family members. An SFI above the 90th percentile is associated with a 4.7x increase in leash-related shoulder injuries to owners. We classify this as safety-critical based on actuarial data from pet insurance claims.
Is the "General Roundness Score" for hamsters scientifically rigorous?
The General Roundness Score (GRS) is a composite polygenic score derived from 847 independent loci associated with adiposity distribution, fur density, and skeletal compactness in Mesocricetus auratus. We validated GRS against blinded expert panel ratings (n=3,200 hamsters, inter-rater reliability κ=0.89). The trait is highly heritable (h²=0.71) and, we believe, underserved by existing breeding methodologies.
Do you offer polygenic scoring for emotional support animals?
Yes. Our ESA Optimization Panel includes PGS for empathy responsiveness, anxiety co-regulation capacity, and "ability to look concerned when you're sad." We are currently validating an additional score for "knowing exactly when to put their head on your lap," though the GWAS is underpowered at present.
Can I select for a cat that actually likes me?
Our Feline Affiliative Behavior PGS explains approximately 6% of variance in owner-directed affection. We want to be transparent that the remaining 94% appears to be environmental, stochastic, or simply unknowable. We recommend combining PGT-P with a structured socialization protocol and realistic expectations.
What about ethical concerns?
We take ethics extremely seriously. Our veterinary ethics board includes three veterinarians, one animal behaviorist, one philosopher, and one golden retriever named Professor Barkley who has veto power. All decisions require a 4/6 majority, and Professor Barkley has never voted against anything, which we interpret as enthusiastic consent.
