New Service Will Clone Your Pet for Under $200

Whether you’re a cat or a dog person, you probably agree that having pets makes life better. But if you've had to pawn off your furry friend or leave them behind at your parents' house, a new service called Cuddle Clones can help. They'll make a stuffed clone of your pet for under $200. 

The Cuddle Clone isn't some generic stuffed animal like you'd get at Toys 'R Us. It's fully customizable, so you can choose the posture, mouth and tail positions, and eye color to make it resemble your pet as much as possible.

The only downside is that the service isn’t cheap. For a Cuddle Clone version of a cat, dog, or horse you'll shell out $199. If you want a Cuddle Clone of a smaller pet like a rabbit or guinea pig, the price drops to $129. On the bright side, ordering is pretty easy. Just send the service a photo, customize your clone, and pony up. Here are some examples of the company's handiwork courtesy of Instagram:

In case you're wondering why someone would pay this much for what's still basically a stuffed animal, consider that landlords aren’t accepting many pets these days, and a new service for renting dogs in San Francisco has generated a lot of buzz, so the gimmick doesn't seem that gimmicky after all.
