Would you want a kitten that was genetically engineered to stay a kitten forever?

Do you think it's possible? Seems like they would be able to engineer cats that stay small, but would it be possible to engineer them to at least maintain the same physical characteristics?

Answers:

Hi there.in fact there is such a type of cat called a teacup Persian: http://www.nemr.net/~poppy1/micro.htm. http://www.messybeast.com/dwarfcats.html.

The person talking about cats in a bottle is referring to the Japanese Bonsai kittens which is a hoax: http://www.snopes.com/critters/crusader/.

no i wouldn't want one, but i do know for sure that there are smaller bred cats (kitten size) that are made by breeding the runts of litters together. it takes awhile tho and from what i hear they're very expensive. one of my teachers has one. hers is about 17, and she says the cat is senial now.. lol.

lol i dont think so but in china they have this thing were they pot a small kitten in a class (that can be any shape) and leave them there for a while and then they break the class (to get the cat out} and the cat stays that shape to me thats mean they feed them thru a tube i dont get why ppl do this its mean but anyway good luck

i think it would be really cute but not safe for the animal, then again i'm not even sure. depends what scientists can do w/ the genetics of the cat.
