    I do agree that it's a cute kitty, but $50,000? That's a lot of coin to drop on an animal, unless your first name is Paris.

    I can understand that she wanted to replicate her beloved cat of 17 years. But, I think that $50,000 could have been used to save a TON of cats that need homes now. He's adorable though.

    You are so right. $50,000 would help out a shelter so much more. Now I'm sad thinking about all the orphaned kitties....

    I dont think most people would understand how much some people love their pets. Its not just having a pet to some people, its like having a child and when that pet dies, the loss is felt deeply. Sometimes, its just too much for some people to take. They want their pet back and they will feel heartbreak for years after the loss of their pet, who was their best friend in the whole world.

    Many people may feel this woman lucky. In a very real way, she did get her pet back.

    Forget about convincing anyone who has lost a dear pet about how many other animals the money could have helped. They wont care, most of the time. For them, losing their pet was like losing their child. I think a lot of people who have lost a pet may look at cloning as an opportunity to recover an animal that meant the world to them.

    The loss of a pet can be very tragic for some. I've been there. I would do anything to get my cat Nala back or my dog China. But how far does cloning go? It provides the same genetic make up right? But it doesn't mean the pet will develop into the same personality as your last one right?

    I don't know. It'd be like cloning my mother or father after they pass away....

    Cloning does not mean it is the same pet and most times it doesn't even look the same as coloring is also effected by environment and other genetic variables.
