So what is so special about those kittens?


They cost $3,950 and there is already a waiting list to get one. Any guesses?

they are the world's first specially-bred hypoallergenic cats.
US biotech firm Allerca says it has managed to selectively breed them by reducing a certain type of protein that triggers allergic reactions.
The cats will not cause the red eyes, sneezing and even asthma that some cat allergy sufferers experience, except in the most acute cases.
No genetic modification...no weird science!
It is done the same way that over the years people have selected different types of dogs to breed them for different things...
So I am not going to jump up and down about it...how that for a refreshing change!.....It isn't as if we haven't doing this type of things for thousands of years.
