Cloned Cats To Make First Appearance At NYC Cat Show

Two cloned kittens will make their first-ever public appearance at the Cat Fanciers' Association Cat Show in Madison Square Garden this weekend, according to a Local 6 News report.

The cloned kittens, Tabouli and Baba Ganoosh, will be on display in a special container but will not be available for handling at the pet show.

Both kittens, bred by Genetic Savings & Clone, are almost identical to each other and the original cat, named Tahini, Local 6 News reported.

Genetic Savings & Clone offers customers a chance to replace their deceased pet for $50,000. The company also charges about $300 to store pet's genetic material, according to a report.

Company officials said customers should not expect their pet to be resurrected but they can expect physical and even behavioral resemblances.

Five customers are paying $50,000 each to clone cats that have since departed, according to the report.

The show will take place Saturday and Sunday.
