| Size Category | Medium |

## Vital Statistics
| Metric | Value |
|---|---|
| Weight Range | 3.5–5.5 kg |
| Lifespan | 15–20 years |

| Senior Age Threshold | 12 years |

## Puppy/Kitten Development
- **Neonatal Weight**: 80–120 g
- **Growth Notes**: Small breed: fast maturation, monitor for early sexual maturity (4-6 months). Reaches full length by 12 months.
- **Vaccine Schedule**: {"start_weeks": 6, "series_count": 3, "core_vaccines": "FPV; FCV; FHV-1; Rabies", "socialization_end_weeks": 12}

## Adult Preventive Care
- **Exercise Needs**: High
- **Grooming**: Low
- **Annual Exam Focus**: Weight and body condition score; Dental health; Kidney values; Thyroid gland palpation; Heart and respiratory auscultation
- **Routine Care**: Monitor for weight loss, increased drinking/urination (kidney disease/amyloidosis), and cognitive decline. Twice-yearly exams recommended for early detection of cancer and degenerative diseases.

## Health Predispositions
| Condition | Onset Stage | Risk | Hereditary | Screening |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Respiratory Infections | Juvenile | High | No | No |
| Asthma | Adult | High | No | No |
| Amyloidosis | Adult | High | No | No |
| Progressive Retinal Atrophy (PRA) | Adult | High | Yes | Yes |
| Feline Hyperesthesia Syndrome | Adult | High | Yes | No |

## Obesity Management
- **Risk Level**: Moderate
- **Ideal BCS**: 5/9
- **Visual Cues**: Ribs easily palpable with light pressure but not visibly sticking out; gentle waist visible from above; abdomen mostly level or gently tucked from the side.
- **Daily Activity Target**: 30 minutes
- **Caloric Formula**: {"daily_kcal_per_kg": 50, "RER_factor": 70, "activity_multiplier": 1.2}

## Breeding & Genetics
- **Litter Size**: 4–6
- **Dystocia Risk**: High
- **CHIC Required Tests**: GM1; MPS VI; PCG; PRA-rdAc

## Behavioral Ethogram
- **Locomotion**: Stalking crouch; Pouncing; Vertical jumping; Tipple (quick tippling with paws before pouncing); Active climbing
- **Social**: Following owner room-to-room; Vocal greeting; Head bunting; Allogrooming; Sleeping close to favorite person
- **Comfort**: Self-grooming; Sunbathing; Loafing position; Kneading; Stretching
- **Stress/Displacement**: Over-grooming (psychogenic alopecia); Pica (eating non-food items); Hiding; Flattened ears; Tail whipping
- **Breed-Specific**: Fetching and retrieving toys; Water play/splashing; Walking on a leash; Intense bonding with a single person

## Vocalization Baseline
- **Types**: Meow (demand); Meow (greeting); Purr; Yowl; Trill/Chirrup; Chatter
- **Frequency Range**: 100-200
- **Tendency**: Very_High
- **Primary Modality**: Primarily Vocal
- **Tail Signals**: Tail up = friendly greeting; Tail whipping = intense agitation/annoyance; Ears forward = alert/curious; Ears flat = defensive/fearful

## Emotional Wellbeing
- **Anxiety Proneness**: High
- **Top Triggers**: Separation from owner; Environmental changes; Boredom/lack of stimulation; Multi-cat conflict; Veterinary visits
- **Separation Anxiety Risk**: Very_High
- **Calming Interventions**: Feliway pheromone diffuser; Interactive play sessions; Routine consistency; Vertical spaces/cat trees; Food puzzles
- **Cognitive Dysfunction Risk**: High

## Behavior Problems (Six-Etiology Classification)
- **Top Problems**: Excessive vocalization; Separation anxiety; Pica/wool sucking; Attention-seeking destructive behavior; Over-grooming
- **Medical Etiology**: Pica/wool sucking (GI issues/genetics); House soiling (UTI/amyloidosis); Sudden aggression (hyperesthesia/pain)
- **Fear/Anxiety Etiology**: Separation anxiety; Non-recognition aggression (after vet visits); Stranger avoidance/hiding
- **Frustration Etiology**: Destructive behavior (under-stimulation); Excessive vocalization (boredom); Over-grooming/psychogenic alopecia

## AI Communication Decoding
- **AI-Trainable Signals**: Tail position/movement; Ear orientation; Vocalization pitch/duration changes; Body posture tension; Eye dilation/slow blinking
- **Context-Dependent Vocalizations**: Loud persistent meow = attention/food demand vs trill/chirp = greeting; Low growl/hiss = fear/warning vs high-pitched wail = separation distress
- **Interspecies Communication**: Develops extensive meow vocabulary for owner; Uses persistent vocalization to demand attention; Highly responsive to human vocal tone and interaction
