This study aimed to determine the relationships between estrogen, progesterone levels, and ovarian irisin levels in cats during the sexual cycle. For this purpose, 30 female cats were used in sexual period. After blood and ovarian samples were taken from the animals, estrogen and progesterone levels were measured in the blood samples, and irisin levels were measured in the tissues. The relationship between ovarian irisin levels (31.292±18.325) ng/ml and estrogen (31.793±11.871) pg/ml was measured by Pearson correlation (r (28) =.188, p= 0.319). Similarly, the relationship between ovarian irisin levels (31.292±18.325) ng/ml and progesterone (5.281±7.790) ng/ml was measured by Spearman's rho (r (28)= .039, p= 0.838). In the light of the data obtained, no significant relationship was found between these variables. As a result, it is thought that fluctuating increases in reproductive hormones during the sexual cycle may cause this result. As a result, further research may uncover the relationships between reproductive hormones and local hormones in cats, potentially benefiting feline reproductive activities.
