    ```Denmark cats: 69-70 deletion plus Y454F RBD mutation seen in some mink. Do not know the relationship of the cats - maybe all the same cat or cat house. Cat from Greece V1104L Lion 3 and 4 Y505H RBD mutation, not present in Lion 2. Lion 2 Q616R mutation not seen in Lions 3,4. Lions 3, 4 A626I, Lion 2 A626T```
