    OK. What is the difference between that and spending $50,000 on a purebred cat?

    This woman is an idiot "The personallity is the same" GENETICS DONT DETERMINE THAT YOU DUMBASS! "He comes to the kitchen when I open the cat food, just like my last cat!" Imagine, 50k that could have set up a housing project, used to clone some dumb bitches fucking cat?!! This is why the apocolypse needs to happen now. You know what would be real funny? If the cat ran into traffic.

    I don't think that there was any way that particular 50K was going to a housing project.

    A fool and their money, etc. She could have spent a very small fraction of that money at the local animal shelter, gotten a kitten and gifted the remainder to me.

    >_< Fools and their money indeed. There are too many stray cats as there is. I see dozens of scraggly, ownerless cats all the time. If I had 50k to spend on an animal, I would get one from the street or animal shelter, and then donate the remaining money to a shelter that doesn't destroy the unwanted animals that run on donated money. Makes me sick. If I ever have that much money, I'll waste it on a house or some land. Was it her money, or her husbands? How did she get so much money?

    I agree with MikeE, still don't think there's so much of a difference between this and someone spending lots of money on a purebred. I don't think the kind of person who'd have their cat cloned would adopt a stray from the shelter *anyway* -they'd buy some crazy prize-winning show animal instead. Any time a breeder sells a young kitten, that's one cat that was born deliberately while so many strays are in shelters...

    And yes, it doesn't work.. it may be a similar cat but it won't be the same animal. You also have a pretty good (or bad :p) chance of genetic defects but that, too, is no different from over-breeding the conventional way... fortunately it's not *too* bad with cats yet, but look at dogs, sooooo many dogs have hip & leg problems due to over-breeding... we didn't need cloning technology to mess with genetics, we've done that for several thousands of years when it comes to our domestic animals.
