    Burmese Kitten Information Project

    NABB has joined forces with Dr. Susan Little in a new research project entitled the Burmese Kitten Information Project. Prompted by the need for research on Flat Chested Kittens, Dr. Susan completed a one year prospective study for the Burmese breed. The Burmese breed was chosen because FCK is known to occur with some frequency in the breed.

    This study spanned from 2003-2004, the results are here:

    SOCk it to FIP!

    SOCK FIP is an organization run by a coalition of cat lovers, pet owners, rescue groups and breeders who have had personal experiences with this terrible disease and whose support is directed to the U. C. Davis CCAH and its experienced group of FIP researchers. Research on FIP at Davis will be supported by SOCK, but data and findings will be shared with other research institutions around the world.
