What kind of freaks think up this stuff, I’m against all this genetic testing and playing God even if they do have the best intentions. I did notice the article fail to mention how many times they failed before they came up with this cat.
“Mr. Green Genes is the first fluorescent cat in the United States and probably the world, said Betsy Dresser, the centre’s director.
The researchers made him so they could learn whether a gene could be introduced harmlessly into the feline’s genetic sequence to create what is formally known as a transgenic cat.
If so, it would be the first step in a process that could lead to the development of ways to combat diseases via gene therapy.”
They’ve done much the same with a Goldfish as well, I’m wondering when we’ll see the next glow-in-the-dark humanoid. Fiction can’t beat reality, eh?
q: if he becomes florescent isnt that from nuclear exposure?
if it is then i’m guessing most of the population in Hiroshima and other places including Iraq are florescent…
another case of man playing GOD
@zk: Umm where did the nuclear exposurecome from? This is Gene Splicing. Crazy.. I’de get freaked out and try and kill any cat which was bloody glow in the dark. It’d freak me out! Like some sort of Jinn or something.
