Induction of oestrus in cats by photoperiodic manipulations and social stimuli

Abstract excerpt

The development of the nervous system can be studied only if the age of the embryo is exactly known. Since it is difficult to control reproduction in female cats, we tried to time fertilization very precisely to within one hour by using either artificial insemination, or by mating females in oestrus induced by light programming.
