Why Did You Launch Genetic testing?

During my graduate studies in biomedical informatics, my first cat, Kami, crossed the rainbow bridge due to a kidney tumor. Despite researching the genetic background of cancer in humans, I deeply regretted not being able to understand Kami’s condition better. I blamed myself and even misplaced blame on others, but I eventually realized that honoring Kami meant contributing to prevent other guardians from experiencing the same pain. Together with a veterinarian senior from university—a close friend for 15 years—and a fellow researcher in drug development, we explored ways to enable proactive health management for pets. After much thought, we concluded that genetic testing was the most effective solution, leading us to develop and launch this service.
