Time is precious.
Protect your pet’s future.
Elita Genetics offers you the unique opportunity to store your pet’s own stem cells during their routine desexing, giving them access to personalised treatments tomorrow. With access to their healthy cells, you’re unlocking a future of advanced care options – from arthritis relief to potentially life-saving treatments – all aimed at helping them enjoy more time at peak health.
Elita Puppy Banking
Our core product is currently available for pre-desexed puppies, as we collect a small fat tissue sample during their routine desexing procedure, avoiding the need for an extra surgery.
*Note: We’re actively working on R&D to enable less invasive sample collection, which will soon allow us to support pups who’ve already been desexed. And for our feline friends, we’re excited to open our services to kittens in 2025.
Don’t miss this opportunity to store their healthy cells.
Treating arthritis today, unlocking tomorrow’s potential
Stem cells are already proven to help with osteoarthritis and joint pain, which affects 1 in 5 dogs—especially larger breeds. By storing your pet’s cells, you provide them with treatments today and open the door to future breakthroughs.
As easy as adding
to their desexing
Stem Cell collection during your pet's routine desexing is simple—an opportunity to store their cells at their healthiest with minimal effort. While we’re developing options for post-desexed pets, this is a convenient chance to secure their health today.
Your pets perfect match
We collect fat tissue from your pet to isolate their own powerful stem cells. These cells are already being used globally to treat joint issues, osteoarthritis, and support wound healing. Research is also underway to explore their potential in treating conditions like kidney disease, heart disease, and more.
Proactive health management
By storing your pet’s stem cells, you’re empowering your veterinarian with more treatment options when health issues arise. Instead of waiting for last-resort surgeries or drugs, your vet can act sooner and has the option to utilise global advancements to provide the best care.
Global breakthroughs, in your hands
Right now, stem cell research is driving incredible advancements in treatments worldwide, with more companies than ever investing in innovation. By storing your pet's cells, you’re not only securing their future—you’re joining a community shaping the future of life-changing treatments for pets everywhere.
*Note: Currently, we only support pre-desexed puppies.
Keeping pets healthy while empowering vets with advanced care options
"Having seen the effects of stem cell therapy overseas, I am delighted to finally have access to this revolutionary therapy in Australia. As veterinary care for pets progresses, we need more options for managing chronic disease like osteoarthritis, and stem cell therapy is a great option for older patients with comorbidities where traditional approaches may not be ideal."

FAQs
What happens if I need to move or change vets?

If you move or change veterinarians, we’ll work with you to make sure your pet’s stem cell banking stays seamless. We can coordinate with your new vet and ensure they have everything they need to provide treatments if necessary.
Why is it only pre-desexed puppies?
Currently, we are accepting pre-desexed puppies because studies have shown that fat tissue (adipose tissue) is an excellent source of healthy and functional stem cells. The ideal time to collect this tissue is during a routine procedure like desexing, ensuring minimal disruption to your pet’s health.
From human aging studies, we know that cells age alongside us, and biologically younger cells offer greater therapeutic potential. By collecting stem cells from fat tissue at the time of desexing, we can lock in their biological age during the biobanking process, allowing them to be retrieved later when your dog needs treatment.
We’re also actively developing an R&D product that won’t rely on a fat sample, and will expand our eligible age range. Join the waitlist to stay updated!Note: Banking for pre-desexed kittens will be available in 2025, so stay tuned by joining our waitlist.
Will future treatments target cancer?
Stem cells show potential for a broader range of conditions, including some cancers, but research in these areas is still in its early stages and far from being standard practice. By storing your pet’s cells now, you’re preserving the possibility of accessing these advancements if and when they become available. We’ll keep you updated on credible studies and breakthroughs, so you can make informed decisions about your pet’s healthcare without unrealistic expectations.
What if my vet isn't supportive?
Reach out to us, and we can recommend vets across Australia who are leading the way in pet healthcare innovation. Alternatively, feel free to share our website with your vet, where they can learn more about recent advancements in stem cell therapy.
Is this different from overseas stem cell services?
Elita Genetics is Australia’s first stem cell bank dedicated to pets. We've built the company working alongside local vets to ensure treatments align with Australian veterinary standards, bringing the latest advancements in regenerative medicine right to your doorstep.
What’s involved in the cell collection process?
Our process aligns with your pet's routine desexing procedure, during which a fat sample, with the size determined by your vet (typically 10–30g), is collected under general anaesthetic. This ensures that no additional surgeries are required, providing a minimally invasive way to create a cell bank for your pet's future.
What can stem cells actually be used for?
Currently, stem cell treatments are primarily used for joint and osteoarthritis cases, particularly in large dog breeds prone to joint issues. These treatments address the underlying cause rather than just managing symptoms, often reducing the need for surgery. Globally, stem cells are also being explored for conditions like kidney and cardiovascular diseases, showing promising results. Your vet can assess whether stem cell treatment could benefit your pet and collaborate with us to access the appropriate options.
What if I fall behind on my monthly payments?
If you’re having difficulty with payments, we’ll work with you to explore options, like freezing your subscription temporarily up to a cap or helping you catch up. If you decide to discontinue your subscription or if your pet passes on, your pet's cells can be donated to our R&D program to support advancements in pet healthcare globally.
