1. Little Nicky

Notes de l'éditeur

Little Nicky (born October 17, 2004) is the first commercially produced cat clone. He was produced from the DNA of a 19-year-old Maine Coon cat named Nicky who died in 2003. Little Nicky's owner, a north Texaswoman named Julie (whose last name was not released) paid $50,000 to have Nicky cloned.
The cloning operation was performed by the California-based company Genetic Savings & Clone, which later closed in 2006.
The Humane Society of the United States and other animal welfare groups denounced the cloning, saying that the $50,000 could have been better used to save some of the millions of animalseuthanized each year[citation needed]
The cat showed no negative side effects from the cloning.
Booger is back.
An American woman received five puppies Tuesday that were cloned from her beloved late pit bull, becoming the inaugural customer of a South Korean company that says it is the world's first successful commercial canine cloning service.

Four Years After Cloning, Drug-Sniffing Dogs Celebrate Remarkable Success in South Korean Airport.
Toppy is the name given to seven cloned[1] Labrador Retriever dogs, born in late 2007 to three surrogate mothers.[2] They were the world's first cloned working dogs, and were used by the Korea Customs Service.
Each Toppy is a clone of a successful sniffer dog in Canada.[3] The Toppy dogs needed 16 months of training to qualify to work for the South Korean Customs Service.[3] Only 10-15% of dogs are genetically predisposed to being effective detection dogs.[4]

But of course, a clone is not the same dog. In fact, thanks to a cloned dog having different mitochondrial DNA from its genetic donor, they're slightly less related than identical twins.
Snuppy (right), the first successfully cloned dog, is shown at 67 days after birth with Tai, the three-year-old Afghan hound whose skin cells were used to clone him. South Korean scientists at Seoul National University performed the cloning procedure, and Snuppy was born on April 24, 2005.
99 percent of cloning attempts fail 1,000’s of embryos100’s of egg “donors”100’s of surrogate mothers
Not just in the US(and So. Korea)
Factory farming is the single biggest cause of animal cruelty. Compassion supporters have already improved the lives of millions of farm animals. But there is still so much more to do.
Many cloned farm animals are born with deformed organs and live short and miserable lives.
Getting ready for the caesarean that will deliver another cloned puppy into the world
Cloned embryos tend to be large and can result in painful births that are often carried out by Caesarean section.

Supporters of Hwang founded a company called Sooam Biotech where Hwang developed proprietary techniques[23] based on a licence from ViaGen's subsidiary Start Licensing (which owns the original Dolly patent[24]) and created cloned dogs for owners whose dogs had died, charging $100,000 a time[25] Sooam Biotech was reported to have cloned 700 dogs by 2015[25] and to be producing 500 cloned embryos of various species a day in 2016
Surrogate mothers endure an additional surgery to deliver the baby. Remember Booger? He was 1 of 5. Pictured here with one of their surrogate mother dogs at the Seoul National Airport 2008. Poor mother dog doesn’t know puppies about to be whisked away.
What will happen to cloned pets who fail to meet expectations?
