Copy Cat Commercial Pet Cloning Draws Closer
Monday 29 July 2002
Earlier this year Operation Copycat, run by gene bank Genetic Savings and Clone, Inc, (GSC), announced that it had successfully cloned the first cat, (named CC [CopyCat], by its creators). This month the death of Missy the Siberian Husky crossbreed and mascot of the $3.7 million (£2.4 million) cloning project spawned another press release.
Missy christened the Missyplicity cloning project, (from which came Operation Copycat), when her DNA was taken to be used to produce the first cloned puppy. However canine cloning proved more difficult to do than feline. The announcement of the successful cat cloning back in December 2001 was delayed until DNA analysis could be performed to confirm genetic identity and was press released by Texas A&M University, where the research was carried out, in May.
