  CC (cat) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
CC (born December 22, 2001), is a brown tabby and white domestic shorthair and the first cloned pet.
The research project that produced CC was known as "Operation CopyCat," and was part of a larger project (called Missyplicity) to clone a dog named Missy.
CC was born at the College of Veterinary Medicine at Texas AandM University, under the direction of Dr. Mark Westhusin, in collaboration with Dr. Taeyoung Shin.

 Augusta Georgia: Technology:Cat cloning puts fluffy face on controversial procedure 03/01/02
When researchers in Texas announced recently that they had cloned a house cat, and that they planned to offer cloning to pet owners for a hefty fee, they chased the national debate about cloning from the fuzzy abstract to the fuzzy lump at the foot of the bed.
Cc is the clone, or genetic identical, of a living cat named Rainbow.
And Cc and Rainbow's differences illustrate, in a very visual way, that a clone is not a reincarnation of the original.

 Scientists Successfully Clone Cat   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
The kitten, called CC (the old typist's abbreviation for carbon copy) and now almost two months old, appears healthy and energetic, although she is completely unlike her tabby surrogate mother, Mark Westhusin and colleagues at Texas A&M University, College Station, announce in the February 21 issue of Nature.
The cat was cloned by transplanting DNA from Rainbow, a female three-colored (tortoiseshell or calico) cat into an egg cell whose nucleus had been removed, and then implanting this embryo into Allie, the surrogate mother.
"CC's coat color suggests that she is a clone, and a genetic match between CC and the donor mother confirms this," the researchers say.

 Mouse In The House Ii - Cat-World - Cat Forums & Cat Message Boards
CC has brought a mouse into the bathroom as a gift for his beloved Matilda, (who is still sitting on her toilet) and is quite proud of himself.
My old cat was a hunter like that and was always bringing us presents, but unfortunately we lived near bush so had everything from tiny frogs to red belly fl snakes (on numerous occasions!!!).
As for CC and his mouse - typial man - "Matilda I caught it - you prepare it for dinner..." The fact that it is still alive and she is on the loo has nothing to do with it.

Though Cc's arrival sparked a deluge of calls from pet owners, more research is needed to figure out how to produce consistently healthy clones before the company can start doing it commercially, said Ben Carlson, the company's spokesman.

CC is the first successful product of a program that will allow people to clone their beloved pets at Texas AandM University in College Station.
CC is not an exact copy of her mother, Rainbow.
Her coat is different, because the pattern of colors on multicolored animals is determined by events in the womb rather than by genes - a reminder that clones may be genetic copies of their parent but are never quite identical.

 2002-02-24: Cat Clone Sparks Controversy... : What's New, Pussycat? : Cat Culture
Cc was cloned using cells from a cat named Rainbow, but, ironically, their markings are different, because the pattern of colors on multicolored animals is determined during pregnancy -- a reminder to many that cloning will not produce an identical animal either in looks or personality.
Supporters of animal cloning, such as John Sperling, who donated $3.7 million dollars to Texas A&M University to fund the project, are interested both in the scientific and financial possibilities of pet cloning.
Grieving pet owners who have recently lost a beloved cat should well ponder whether their kitty's spirit would be better honored by giving a home to a cat who already needs one.

As CC series clutch covers were developed and are sold for racing applications, use of the gasket is not necessary.

 Background
From the diagram it is clear that if the mouse position is between the cat's old position and the cat's new position, the line traveled by the mouse must be longer than the line traveled by the cat (the cat has to get closer to the origin).
The cat catches the mouse when it (the cat) moves past the mouse while at the base of the statue, i.e.
Note that the cat cannot move inside the statue's base; hence if the cat is, say, at radius 1.7 and sees the mouse, it can move in only 0.7 meters, up to the base of the statue.

 Calculating Dosages
something along the lines of, "Give your cat 1 cc of Drug X." This creates confusion, as Drug X may be available in 2 or 3 different concentrations (strengths), and not all cats are the same weight.
Milliliters and cc's are used for volumes of liquid, milligrams (mg's) are used for weights of solids.
Mixing a bitter solution with something more attractive to your cat may be an option, but this will affect the stability of the drug.
