In a large group of cats, n, the epidemiological risk of mutation (E) is higher and expressed theoretically as: E = n 2 −n. A house hosting 2 cats therefore has risk of mutation E = 2. When 4 kittens (6 cats in total) are born into this house, the risk increases from 2 to 30 (6 2 −6). Overcrowding increases the risk of mutation and ...
