Tyler D, where did you see that about the cat ?
The current 'glofish', which have a gene inserted to make them glow, are patented, so we aren't supposed to sell any offspring if the fish have any, but so far as I know, the fact they glow does not affect life expectancy.
I would not like to see glowing snails or any other glowing critters that did not come that way to begin with. It worries me that such things are done, even for reasons that seem good at the time.
It's true sleep deprivation is genuine torture. It can kill, taken to extremes. It's logical it would affect animals too. But I'd be interested to learn what was done to that cat.. I'm dead against this kind of 'research' using any animals.
