Dear Dr. Bamford,

   I know you’re a famous scientist who has done great work on cloning animals. Please excuse me for writing to you, but I need your   1  . Let me explain.

   I’m a 58-year-old man. I’m very rich. I live in a large house. My wife died three years ago and we didn’t have children.

So, am I   2  ? No, because Cindy is with me. Every night we eat dinner and watch TV together. Cindy sits beside me   3   I feel very happy. I’m fascinated with her beautiful green eyes. She’s also very smart. Sometimes she thinks only about herself, but that’s what I  4   about her. She’s quite a beautiful Siamese cat. There’s no other cat like her in the whole world.

These days I worry about   5   Cindy. She’s getting older and older. Cats don’t live

  6   humans. Of course, she will die before I do. I cannot imagine my life   7   Cindy.

Well, why not get another cat after Cindy dies?   8   any other cat can replace her.

I have been thinking about this: Clone Cindy. Scientists are able to clone sheep, mice and other animals. They should be able to clone cats without much   9  . Luckily, I’m a rich man. I don’t care how much money I will spend cloning Cindy. I think   10   to clone pets. It’s not cloning humans.

What do you think? Could you clone Cindy?

Love,

 A rich man
