"Genetically Engineered" Ashera Cat a Fraud, Reporter Sued

Are we about to be sued? It looks that way.

Several months ago, we reported the uncanny similarity between a new "genetically engineered" super-cat called "Ashera" and Savannah cats, a regular old (but very cool) registered breed. They're being sold by Lifestyle Pets, for a paltry $22-$25k.

Check out this article at posted yesterday at The-Scientist.com, which reports a brouhaha between the owner of Lifestyle pets and a reporter. Apparently, said reporter is being sued by Lifestyle Pets for suggesting that the "Ashera" cats are merely F1 Savannah cats, an existing breed, but with better marketing. We stand by our original reporting which pretty much said the same thing that the later reporter did.

So, I think we may be about to be sued. What do you think? We may have to put out a tin-cup for a legal defense fund soon.
