Bah, you forgot the rules - all articles about a specific cat must be accompanied by a picture of that cat when possible.

Does that mean they unraveled all of this cat’s DNA? :)

“Richard Gibbs of the Baylor College of Medicine in Houston, who led a team that decoded the DNA of a monkey called the rhesus macaque, called the new work “a good outline” of cat DNA. Scientists are looking forward to the complete version, which will be useful for making detailed comparisons to the DNA of other animals, he said.”

I should call our cat that. We had an earthquake here a couple of nights ago, felt it pretty strongly in our house. Cat just glanced at us getting up and running for doorways with a look of narcoleptic disinterest and went back to sleep. I thought animals were perceptive about earthquakes.

Decoding is only the first step. Now they have to read the document. Good luck.

You can spell cat twice with “Titicaca” and not reuse any letters.
