http://www.brisbanetimes.com.au/news/gen...7135555264.htmlSouth Korean scientists have cloned cats by manipulating a fluorescent protein gene, a procedure which could help develop treatments for human genetic diseases, officials said today.
In a side-effect, the cloned cats glow in the dark when exposed to ultraviolet beams. The photo in the article really is worth a thousand words.

I thought most fluorescence was green/yellow. Those cats kind of look like a photo taken with infra-red. Real?

Demon Kitties OR are they actually Mutant Zombie Kitties with a good Public Relations Team behind them??????
Glowing in the dark MIGHT suggest some radiation is in there somewhere!!!!!!

I don't care to see a cat in the daytime. Why would I want to see one during the night or a power outage? BTW, a benefit of power outages is NOT seeing cats.

Be sure to get one at least three times the size of the cat. Otherwise the cat will win.
