  12. “For or against” • Are you for or against commercial cat cloning?

  13. Beyond “for or against” • Is a pet owner who has his/her cat cloned acting well, neutrally, or badly? • Should Genetic Savings and Clone be allowed to offer commercial cat cloning? • Are there ways for GSC to address the ethical concerns about commercial cat cloning?

  14. Allerca • ALLERCA will produce the world's first hypoallergenic cats, and we expect the birth of these first special kittens in early 2007.The cat allergen is a potent protein secreted by the cat’s skin and salivary glands. Removal of the allergen will not harm the cats in any way. The resulting hypoallergenic cats will improve the health and quality of life for millions of cat-allergy sufferers.While some breeds of cats have been promoted as having less allergen than others, scientists that have tested this hypothesis have shown that all cats, regardless of breed, produce allergen. Allerca will produce the first cats that will not affect human allergies.The first breed of hypoallergenic cat produced will be the British Shorthair, known to be friendly, playful and affectionate. Other popular breeds will follow soon. http://www.allerca.com/

  16. Animal welfare research • Purdue University: • “Today, it’s not just animal-rights activists who are asking questions about how farm animals are raised.” Purdue animal sciences researcher Ed Pajor is studying sow housing, looking for best management and well-being practices. McDonald's Corp. has announced that it will fund some of his research in alternative sow housing. (Purdue Agricultural Communications Service Photo by Tom Campbell)

  17. Temple Grandin • Animals are not things: “There is a fundamental difference between cows and screwdrivers. Cows feel pain and screw drivers do not. I am allowed to kill the cow for food but she must be killed in a manner that will not cause pain.” If the single file race is bent too sharply where it joins the crowd pen the cattle may refuse to enter because it looks like a dead end. Cattle standing in the round crowd pen must be able to see a minimum of three body lengths up the single file chute before the curve begins. http://americanradioworks.publicradio.org/features/mcdonalds/grandin1.html
