Breed reports need to be improved.

So I have this set of feline DNA; because Basepaws finally added health markers this year. The health reports were straightforward and mostly easy to understand. Breeding reports were vague; and I had to watch several videos and found it difficult to find the new basepaws help article. As far as I know, Basepaws currently believes my cat is 39.5% western DNA; and shares DNA with all 7 races in this group. The American Shorthair took first place because my cat's dominant genes or appearance inherited the striped stripes from that breed. He has 17.01% Oriental DNA; and shares DNA with all four races in this group. He appears to have a small American Burmese skull and a short snout nose. American Burmese have short legs while European Burmese have long legs. My cat has short front legs and high back legs. He has 7.77% exotic DNA; and shares DNA with all 3 races in this group. The Egyptian Mau has short front legs and high back legs. The Egyptian Mau is the fastest house cat; and wags its tail to mark its territory. He has 12% Persian DNA; and shares DNA with all 4 races in this group. The Exotic Shorthair comes in a variety of colors; has shaggy short hair; and keeps the tail low to the ground most of the time. In short, these top 4 breeds give my cat all of her physical attributes. So I think the analysis of the basepaw breed is good, but it could be presented better and more clearly. I wish Basepaws would add a list of traits so I don't have to research future cats I might get. The cat's blood type would be good. Relationships between siblings and parenthood. The Polycat DNA is an unknown DNA that could be cut in a few years.

Pros
  • A sea of positive emotions
Cons
