I Cloned My Pet

I watched this the other night, the thousands of pounds owners pay to clone there pet, I would do anything to save my pet within money and love, but if it was ill and was dying through disease like fip, or leukemia/cancer, (major life threatning diseases )would the cloned animal suffer the same fate, one chap brushed the dog after death and saved it for cloning, also would they be identical as in traits and ways not just looks, surely if you trained it differently or never had the pet from the beginning, it would be a different pet? I have no intention of cloning or taxidermy but was wondering what you thought?

They are not even identical in looks - remember the cloned kitten? Looked nothing like the original.

Any inherited problems would still be there. Although you can't guarantee healthy genes with any animal. However, i don't see the point of cloning your pet, as you would end up with its "identical twin" . It is still a different animal, with different thoughts and experiences, just as identical twins are. You haven't got your original pet back.

Wouldn't even consider it.

No nor me baldric, memories are stored up in my brain, I only have to think of a ping pong ball and she is there, that cat could play fetch better than my 4 dogs, she could not be replaced with a copy/clone, and I personally would think its a different pet, x
