Researcher looked at the the association between traits like purring and variation in the androgen receptor gene in the domestic cat. Cats carrying the short type androgen receptor gene had higher “purring” scores. Short-type male cats showed higher “directed calls/vocalizations” scores, whereas females with short-type alleles showed higher “stranger-directed aggression” scores. These results indicate that genetic data can be used to improve our understanding of cat communication and the cat-human bond.

Older dogs have a less synchronized olfactory brain network, as well as dogs with a rounder brain. This means that as dogs age their sensitivity to smells decreases. The rounder head dogs may also have decreased olfactory performance.
