Plasma cholesterol levels in kittens and puppies were low at birth, rose during the suckling period, and then decreased at about the time of weaning. The increase during the suckling period was much greater in puppies than in kittens. No significant differences in plasma cholesterol levels were observed in puppies fed two different types of diet, horse meat or dog chow, after weaning. Guinea pigs had lower plasma cholesterols than either kittens or puppies. The level was highest on the first day after birth, decreased during the next 3 wk, and then remained fairly constant after the animals were weaned.
小猫和小狗出生时血浆胆固醇水平较低，在哺乳期升高，然后在断奶时左右下降。小狗在哺乳期的升高幅度比小猫大得多。断奶后，喂食两种不同类型饮食（马肉或狗粮）的小狗血浆胆固醇水平没有显著差异。豚鼠的血浆胆固醇水平低于小猫或小狗。出生后第一天水平最高，在接下来的3周内下降，然后在动物断奶后保持相当稳定。
