Scientists have spliced flourescent-producing genes (mainly from jellyfish) into other animals in the past. This research aims to learn gene-modification techniques, not just to produce glowing cats. However, there have been cloning stories out of Korea that didn't quite hold up to later scientific scrutiny, so take that as it is. It’s not a parody story.
