Researchers in Texas say they have cloned a cat - an advance that moves cloning from the barnyard to the living room and is likely to spark interest among pet owners.The female domestic short hair, called cc for copycat, was born Dec. 22 and is now healthy and frisky, researcher Duane Kraemer of Texas A and M University in College Station said Thursday.Headed up by Dr. Mark Westhusin of A and Ms veterinary medicine school, the project is the first reported success in cloning dogs or cats, which has been long discussed for pet owners.Many people have already stored cells from their pets in anticipation of cloning in the future, said Kraemer.
