Pet cloning company shuts its doors.

Genetic Savings & Clone, a biotechnology company that sold cloned pets, sent letters to its customers last month informing them it will close at the end of the year because of little demand for cloned cats. The company had recently reduced the price from $50,000 to $32,000.  Associative Press

Well thank goodness for that!

"It’s no surprise the demand for cloned pets is basically nonexistent, and we’re very pleased that Genetics Savings & Clone’s attempt to run a cloning pet store was a spectacular flop," said Wayne Pacelle, head of the Humane Society of the United States. "It’s not just a bad business venture, but also an operation grounded on the misuse of animals."

I know it is very difficult when you lose an animal, in fact one of my future posts will deal with the human animal bond, but cloning your pet that is just going a little too far??  What do you think of cloning? Leave a comment.
