If you love your furry pet and can’t envision a world without Fido, Misty or Max, now there’s an alternative to getting it stuffed—or cloned. Just yank some fur from your pet’s hide and send it to DNA2Diamonds, where a team will literally turn your dog’s carbon matter into a wearable diamond.
According to the company’s ad, they remove your pet’s “unique DNA carbon” from a submitted fur sample, then turn it into a diamond seed, which starts the growth of your diamond.
