Being allergic to pretty much everything, I was glad to hear about Allerca, a company producing genetically engineered cats that won’t bother allergic people (or as they prefer to say, "lifestyle pets"). A minor drawback is the $4000 prize tag (close to $6000 since apparently i live "overseas"), but the preposterous EULA looks like it came from a proprietary software shop.

"Purchaser shall not sell or transfer any Cat purchased hereunder to anyone other than an immediate family member, and shall not offer to any person the purchase of a Cat or any genetic material from a Cat, the rights Purchaser may have under this Agreement, or any other right related hereto, without the Company’s express written authorization."

The cats are sold neutered of course, so that only Allega can provide them. No free kitties for the neighborood! Reminds me of Monsanto selling farmers new seed every year. Oh well. Maybe I’ll get myself a GEGL instead.
