What is this? Some cats sold as Ocicats may actually be Servals. This is about pets, not food.

What's happening? A problem was found with cats sold in Italy. They might not be the breed they claim to be.

Does this affect me? If you bought an Ocicat in Italy, this might include you.

What should I do? Ask your vet or a pet expert if you are unsure about your cat’s breed.
