J: Wow, she's so cute! A: Isn't she? I love her so much. I don't know what I'd do if something happened to her. J: You know, I heard recently about a man from China who missed his dead cat so much that he had her cloned. A: Cloning your pet? No, I don't approve of that. J: Why not? A: Surrogate cats are used to carry the embryos. The cats are basically forced to get pregnant against their will. J: You're absolutely right. I'd never thought of it that way before. Actually, come to think of it, cloned animals aren't even real copies, are they? I mean, they don't have the original animal's memories or anything. A: It's like twins: they share the same DNA, but they have different personalities. How much did it cost, out of curiosity? J: Around US$35,000, I think. A: Unbelievable. Why can't these wealthy people use that money to help stray animals rather than wasting it on making copies of their pets? J: So I won't sign you up then? In case something unfortunate happens to Pudding. A: No, thank you! |
