The Detroit Free Press reported that the first cloned-to-order pet, a kitten named Little Nicky, was delivered to a Texas woman about 2 weeks ago. The kitten, was cloned by a Sausolito company called Genetic Savings and Clone, for a mere $50,000. Little Nicky’s owner had banked her deceased 17-year-old cat’s DNA, which was used to create the clone. David Magnus was quoted: “It’s morally problematic and a little reprehensible…For $50,000, she could have provided homes for a lot of strays.” – Linda Glenn
