One of the biggest problems is that a particular cats markings are set by chance in the womb, and are not coded. So a cloned cat does not have the same markings. So the cat wouldn't look just like fluffy, and probably wouldn't have the same personality either.

It would be soooooo easy for a company like that to take tissue samples, then visit a few shelters and find a kitten with similar markings! And a lot of shelters and rescue groups have websites, so you could just find your new clone on-line.
