As a breeder of pedigree cats I can answer yes they do. I have to get my cats blood group tested, because a mating between incompatible blood groups will result in a litter of kittens dying.

In the case of animals blood group is applied to combinations of blood factors. So it is preferable to call it as blood group systems rather then blood groups. Each system has many factors, which are together called blood group factors
