In order to have your pet cloned, you will need to first ensure that you have the money to do so. It is a costly undertaking right now with a price tag of about $150,000. So if you are considering this, and money is an issue for you, you may want to save money first.
Next you will need to save his/her DNA. You will need to research and find a company to bank or store your pet's DNA. This may be difficult to do as funding is just recently become more available for these companies. There is a short list of companies where you may be able to begin your research: Genetics Savings and Clone of College Station, Texas or Sausalito, California, Canine Cryogenics or perPETuate of Newington, Connecticut.
After you contact a bank, a Pet DNA Collection kit will be sent. Follow the instructions on the DNA Collection kit and send it back in. Your or a veterinarian will be involved to do a skin sample and actually send the sample in to be stored.
At this point your fate or your pet's fate lies in the hands of the researchers and/or team of scientists. They will work their magic and produce a pet for you that may or may not fill a void in your life.
If you are a dog owner you may have to rely on other countries such as Korea to have the possibility of your pet being cloned to become a reality. I have added a link in the resources section directly below with this information.
How to Have Your Pet Cloned
Pet cloning is becoming more and more of a reality here in the United States and for a couple of families, it has already become a reality. Yes, there has been a cat cloned right here in the U.S. Families and/or owners of sick or dieing pets are tending to be the ones reaching out for this option of pet cloning. With it still being an ethical issue though, don't be surprised if you, in your love for your animal, run into opposition while attempting to have your pet cloned.
