About this product

What is EpiPaws Pet Age Test Kit for Dogs & Cats?

The EpiPaws Age Test is an at-home DNA-based kit that accurately estimates your dog or cat’s age using advanced epigenetic analysis. Just collect a cheek swab, send it in with the prepaid label, and receive results in about 6 to 8 weeks. Your report includes an estimated birthday, life stage, and personalized care insights to help you support your pet’s health. Perfect for rescue pets or those with unknown birthdays. Not recommended for pets under 1 year old, as results may not be accurate.

Suitable for:

  • Dogs & Cats (Over 1 year old, with Unknown or Uncertain Age)

Benefits:

  • Hassle-free cheek swab kit with prepaid return shipping for quick sample collection.
  • Get results in just 4 to 6 weeks, including an estimated birthday and life-stage insights.
  • Ideal for rescues and pets over one year old with unknown ages, accurate within 12 months.
  • Provides the most accurate age estimate for dogs and cats using advanced DNA methylation analysis.
  • Knowing your pet's age helps you make informed decisions about your their health and well-being, including nutrition and exercise.

How does EpiPaws Pet Age Test Kit for Dogs & Cats work?

The EpiPaws Age Test Kit estimates your pet’s age by analyzing DNA methylation patterns — chemical markers on the genome that serve as the gold standard for chronological age prediction. This method delivers accuracy within 12 months for most pets, with 75% of samples falling within 5 months of actual age. It’s best suited for pets with age uncertainty greater than one year, helping you make informed care decisions.

Caution:

This test is intended for dogs and cats over 1 year old and is not recommended for puppies or kittens under 12 months. It estimates age based on DNA methylation and does NOT measure health markers such as blood sugar, cholesterol, or organ function. For a complete health evaluation, consult your veterinarian.

How should I store this product?

Store the test kit at room temperature in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, heat, and moisture.
