Abstract

Embryo transfer technology has been developing since the early 20th century and has gradually been applied in various animal breeding programs. In felines, the development and application of this technology began relatively late and faces many challenges, including the unique reproductive physiology and hormonal cycles of cats. With the rise of the pet economy and the increasing demand for purebred cats, optimizing these technologies not only meets market demands but also aids in scientific research and the conservation of endangered species. This study analyzes various embryo transfer techniques and influencing factors, aiming to explore and resolve key technological and ethical issues in feline embryo transfer. Through technical optimization and policy guidance, this research strives to advance the scientific development and market application of feline breeding programs
